The palate is silky and generous, layering flavours of peach, pear and white nectarine with flashes of lemon curd and grapefruit. A gentle savoury edge and subtle oak-derived spice add interest and texture without stealing the spotlight. Fine mineral acidity keeps everything in check, giving lift, shape and momentum through the mid palate. Seamless and quietly indulgent, it finishes dry and persistent with lingering stone fruit and a soft nutty echo - a relaxed yet confident Chardonnay made to share with great company.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVersatile.

As the yeast settled and the wine brightened, the lees were stirred back into suspension to keep the wine fresh and to build texture. Malolactic fermentation happens naturally during the few months the wine rested in oak and ceramic eggs until the acidity of the wine is in a delicate balance with the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mon Tout Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43068734210248,"sku":"25-MON-DAYS-DOM12","price":33.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0298\/4728\/9915\/files\/Mon_Tout_Heydays_-_4.jpg?v=1770875017","url":"https:\/\/montout.com.au\/products\/heydays-chardonnay","provider":"Mon Tout Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
