The Iona Chardonnay shows concentrated marzipan and citrus flavours with underlying hazelnut and lime notes, which adds to layered complexity. The Chardonnay is produced from two north-facing vineyards on the western boundary of the estate, both planted in 2003. The cool climate ensures long, slow ripening of the grapes under ideal growing conditions, with the sugar, ph, acids, tannins and flavour compounds being in perfect balance to produce elegant, low alcohol wines of distinction.
