An elegant, finely balanced estate Chardonnay from the iconic Babylonstoren Wine Estate, showcasing precision winemaking and restrained power. This is a Burgundian-inspired style that favours texture, freshness, and purity over overt oak.
Tasting Notes Aromas of ripe citrus, white peach, and pear are complemented by subtle notes of toasted almond, vanilla, and wet stone. The palate is layered and creamy yet beautifully fresh, with vibrant acidity carrying through to a long, polished finish.
Winemaking Grapes are hand-harvested and gently pressed, with fermentation and maturation in carefully selected oak to add complexity without masking fruit expression. The result is a refined, age-worthy Chardonnay with excellent balance.

Placed our first order with Rainbow Nation Wines earlier this week, and have to say I am super impressed with the process. Quite a big order with some single and double selections as well as a couple of cases. Smaller order arrived after 2 days via An Post, and the larger order of the cases is out for delivery today with DPD.

Amazing selection of wines. I have ordered from them twice now and the wine arrived before the estimated delivery day, and very well packaged. And I should mention the great pricing for premium wines.
