De Bortoli Buttery Chardonnay

Made with partial oak fermentation and careful lees stirring, the De Bortoli Buttery Chardonnay achieves its hallmark creamy mouthfeel without losing freshness. Notes of peach, pineapple, and toasty oak are seamlessly woven with hints of butter and caramel, leading to a long, silky finish. Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with roast chicken, seafood in cream sauce, or soft cheeses, it’s a wine that delivers comfort, flavour, and charm in every glass

Reviews:

"I was concerned that this might be too rich and exaggerated, especially after the initial aromas of butterscotch on the nose, but no need to worry. There’s enough fruit flavours here to bring a sense of balance and freshness. Stonefruit flavours with peach and citrus, a round, plump mouthfeel, and a hint of vanilla with the oak. It’s a smart combination."

"Medium straw gold with green edges. Fresh bread crust, preserved lemon, ripe yellow melon, white peach flesh, butterscotch, creamed honey, crushed white salt, roast pork flesh and a little hessian sack. Full and fleshy. There’s a touch of struck match and white quartz stoniness to give some interest and balance over lemon curd, peach melba and nougat. The finish is still crisp with a bitter herb nuance. It’s unapologetically big in style, but showing some class."
