Penfolds Koonunga Hill Chardonnay 2025

Why We Love This

Penfolds Koonunga Hill Chardonnay is an elegant, well-balanced white that strikes the perfect harmony between fruit, oak, and freshness. It's a fantastic choice for anyone who enjoys a rich yet crisp Chardonnay, with just enough oak to add complexity without overwhelming the bright fruit flavours. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a sunny afternoon, this Chardonnay delivers on flavour and finesse.

Tasting Notes

• Taste: Bright citrus notes of lemon and grapefruit shine through, complemented by ripe stone fruits like peach and nectarine. There’s a touch of creaminess and subtle oak spice from the barrel aging, providing structure and depth while maintaining a refreshing finish.
• Aroma: Fresh and inviting, with notes of lemon zest, green apple, and a hint of vanilla from the oak. A touch of floral and mineral character adds complexity to the nose.
• Finish: Crisp and clean with a lingering freshness. The oak influence is light, allowing the fruit to shine while adding a smooth, round finish.
• Food Match: Perfect with seafood, grilled chicken, or a creamy pasta dish. It also pairs well with mild cheeses, roasted vegetables, or a fresh garden salad.
