Penfolds Koonunga Hill Chardonnay 2024 13% Vol. 0,75l
£12.61
The Penfolds Koonunga Hill Chardonnay 2024 is an elegant and balanced white wine from the renowned house of Penfolds, one of Australia’s most famous wineries. This Chardonnay cuvée comes from the cooler wine regions of South Australia and was vinified with the aim of combining freshness, finesse and drinking pleasure in perfect balance. At Penfolds, the Koonunga Hill Linie has stood for quality, consistency and an excellent price-pleasure ratio for decades – and that is exactly what this vintage delivers.
Modern cellar techniques and targeted use of wood are combined in the ageing process: Part of the fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, while a small proportion matures in oak barrels. This gives the wine a harmonious structure, while at the same time preserving the varietal character of the Chardonnay and emphasising its fruity freshness. With an alcohol content of 13% vol., the wine is ideal for any occasion – from a stylish aperitif to a versatile accompaniment to food.
The Koonunga Hill Chardonnay 2024 is a wine for connoisseurs who are looking for an accessible, aromatic and characterful white wine of international calibre.
Tasting NoteIn the glass, the Chardonnay has a light golden yellow colour with greenish reflections. The nose is inviting with aromas of yellow apple, white peach, honeydew melon and citrus, accompanied by a hint of vanilla, toasted wood and buttery creaminess. On the palate, a round, fruit-driven body unfolds with fine acidity, a pleasant melting texture and a slightly nutty, elegantly mineral finish, which is perfectly rounded off by subtle wood notes.
The Penfolds Koonunga Hill Chardonnay 2024 is an excellent accompaniment to grilled fish, poultry with lemon butter, Asian cuisine with coconut and Ingwerer, pasta with cream sauce and mature soft cheese. It also unfolds its full expressive power on its own as a well-chilled aperitif. Recommended serving temperature: 8-10 °C – for a multi-layered, fresh Chardonnay experience from Australia with a worldwide reputation.
