{"product_id":"2025-wickhams-road-tasmania-chardonnay","title":"2025 Wickhams Road Tasmania Chardonnay","description":"\u003cp\u003eFranco D’Anna’s Wickhams Road label has long been a reliable source of affordable Chardonnay, and now Tasmania joins the range. This debut release brings the same attention to detail that makes the Hoddles Creek team’s wines such good buying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fruit comes from near Launceston and is pressed as whole bunches into older oak. It spends 12 months in cask, followed by another four months in stainless steel to settle before bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat’s a patient approach for an accessible Chardonnay, giving the wine time to develop without relying on new oak for flavour. The appeal is straightforward: Tasmanian fruit, thoughtful winemaking and the unparalleled value that keeps people coming back to Wickhams Road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e91+ points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"It’s crisp and zingy, a fair old acid drive to this wine, but there’s flavour too, albeit more in the white peach and ripe lemon spectrum, with some mint\/fennel, green olive, almond, and floral perfume. It’s quite powdery in texture, offers some spice and has a crunchy pear and lemon sherbet finish of good length. Very good. Thirst-quenching and zesty, with a certain salinity to it. Wickhams Road keeps on keeping on delivering good wines at affordable prices.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Gary Walsh (The Wine Front)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Hoddles Creek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67798560145451,"sku":"2025 Wickhams Road Tasmania Chardonnay","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2572\/9722\/files\/2025WickhamsRoadTasmaniaChardonnay_04f81732-3f2c-4406-b5ab-7f6fc576bf37.png?v=1792366494","url":"https:\/\/www.differentdrop.com\/products\/2025-wickhams-road-tasmania-chardonnay","provider":"Different Drop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
