Hesketh Small Batch Adelaide Hills Chardonnay 2024 is a bright, modern Hills white with crisp stone fruit, citrus and just enough oak to add polish without weight. Hesketh Small Batch Chardonnay 2024 leans into that cool‑climate Adelaide Hills vibe – refreshing, nicely detailed and very drinkable across the week. It is a smart choice if you like flavour without heaviness.

Expect aromas of white peach, nectarine and lemon zest, with a little grapefruit, melon and gentle vanilla or nougat in the background. The palate is medium‑bodied and sleek, showing peach, citrus and a touch of apple over a fine line of acidity. Oak influence is subtle, more about texture and a whisper of toast than obvious flavour, so it finishes clean and refreshing.

Food‑wise, this Chardonnay is spot‑on with roast chicken, pan‑fried fish, prawn or crab pasta and soft‑rind cheeses. It will also work nicely with sushi, grilled haloumi salads and simple roast veggies with olive oil and herbs.
