Emmalene Chardonnay 2024 by Emmalene from Forreston in the Adelaide Hills is a bright, modern cool‑climate Chardy with plenty of flavour and just the right amount of zip for warm‑weather drinking. Crafted from hand‑tended Adelaide Hills sites with considered oak and generous lees work, this Emmalene 2024 Chardonnay layers brioche, juicy peach and lemon over a soft, creamy palate, with citrus lift and a clean line of acidity keeping it fresh and beautifully balanced from first sip to last.

Perfect with grilled prawns, salt‑and‑pepper squid, sushi, BBQ chicken or a simple roast chook, it’s basically built for seafood and summer table fare, but just as happy as a porch‑sipping or Christmas‑tree‑decorating wine when you want serious flavour without heaviness. Emmalene Chardonnay 2024 is exactly the kind of easy‑going yet characterful Adelaide Hills Chardonnay that keeps you coming back for another glass.
