Graham Beck Waterside Chardonnay 2012

Pale straw with hints of green on the edge. Vibrant freshness and an explosion of tropical fruit and ripe citrus on the nose with underlying yellow stone fruit tones. Juicy entry with a light-bodied palate which finishes with a zesty lime twist.

Good company for Alfresco lunches and also great with grilled chicken, crustaceans and pan-fried fresh fish.
