The Olive Grove Chardonnay

The appearance is pale with a straw colour and clear hue. The aromas are fresh and light. The dominating notes are of melted butter and popcorn, white peach stones and nectarines. As the wine opens there is a mix of ripe red apple, spices, cinnamon and citrus, with a hint of oak. The palate is soft and very refreshing with characters of green melon rind, ripe fig and ripe apple.
Arenberg is one of the most significant wineries in McLaren Vale. Founded in 1912 by Joseph Osborn, fourth generation, Chester Osbourn took over the reins as Chief Winemaker in 1984. There is method to his madness (and his shirts!) and no one knows their soils and vines better than Chester.
Chester works with individual parcels of fruit that display different flavour profiles that are influenced by the unique soil characteristics and meso-climates of the vineyards. Each parcel is picked and vinified separately to highlight the individual characters that contribute complexity to the final blend.
