The 2008 Terra Barossa Chardonnay is medium straw-colored with an alluring nose of toast, citrus, melon, and pear with a hint of tropical fruits in the background. Tasty, ripe, and forward on the palate, this lively Chardonnay will offer pleasure over the next 2 years. It is worth the $2 premium. Thorn-Clarke is a fine source for values from Australia. There are three levels of wine, the Milton Park series lined priced at $13, the Terra Barossa series line priced at $15, and the Shotfire series line priced at $24. Typically they can be found discounted at hard to resist prices.Importer: Kysela Pere & Fils, Winchester, VA; tel. (540) 722-9228
