Pocketwatch Chardonnay 2024, Oatley Wine Group, Central Ranges, New South Wales. This brilliant modern Australian Chardonnay from premium cool-climate sites glows pale straw, exploding with enticing aromas of ripe peach, juicy pineapple and fresh fig that mingle with delicate white florals and subtle vanilla cream lift. The palate thrills with lush stone fruit generosity, creamy pineapple flesh, spicy oak whispers and vibrant citrus tension, delivering a flavoursome, textured mouthfeel with long, balanced freshness that’s utterly compelling.​

Richly fruited yet elegantly restrained, the Pocketwatch Chardonnay 2024 showcases fruit-driven opulence where oak supports rather than dominates – a versatile crowd-pleaser perfect for sunny afternoons or sophisticated seafood feasts. Pair with wood-fired barramundi, creamy chicken velouté, tempura soft-shell crab or aged brie to unlock its seductive, moreish charm.
