The 2019 Jaluka Chardonnay from Seppelt is pale straw with green hues. Good complexity on the nose with plenty of stone fruit aromatics and hints of peach-skin, balanced with subtle oak note. On the palate, white peach flavours combine with citrus notes and subtle spicy oak characters. The chalky acidity is balanced by creamy lees texture to produce a complex, refined Chardonnay. \”Jaluka presents the pristine qualities of Henty chardonnay with some subtle oak injection and nutty matchstick notes. It\’s a delicate balance given the delicacy of fruit. Citrus, nectarine, white peach, mealy aromas give way to a buttery, nutty palate, quite succulent and finishing soft.\” Jeni Port, Wine Companion, 13 August 2021
