Premium Colombard Chardonnay 4lt

Pretty Good
"This is fresh, clean and fruity - decent, uncomplicated drinking with a pretty
dry finish."

Peter Forrestal, Quaff 2010, October 2009

"The nose has characters like sweet, perfumed pears with a touch of nuttiness. Zesty, fresh citrus palate with sweetness to add depth."

, Winestate, Cask Wines, March 2008

"The quest for quality that has invigorated De Bortoli wines in recent years stretches all the way down the line and can even be seen in its casks. Fresh, citrussy and sprightly, this chardonnay pleases the palate as much as the pocket."

Nick Ryan, Australian Table, May 2007

"A surprise packet, a wine this good in a 4-litre soft pack - but that's De Bortoli these days. This is light, bright, fresh and fruity with some attractive juiciness and a fairly dry finish. Very good value. Rating: Bloody Good."

Peter Forrestal, Quaff, December 2006

"Green bean and passionfruit aromas with a subtle citrus influence. The palate is well balanced in a drier style, with plenty of flavour weight to the tropical fruits."

, Winestate, Feature Tasting - Cask Wines, March 2006

"Upfront honeyed tropical fruit aromas. Nice, full, sweet tropical fruit palate showing lively freshness and pleasant nutty notes."

"Lovely peach aromas with some sweaty citrus highlights. A medium, balanced palate with some residual sugar and some good acid length."

"Lively tight clean palate with green bean characters, good fruit depth and palate weight."
