Coldstream Hills Reserve Chardonnay 2000
A mature, toasty and honeyed chardonnay with a delicate fragrance of restrained stonefruit, citrus and melon aromas over nuances of oatmeal and butter. Soft and creamy, its juicy core of citrus and melon fruit is just starting to become dominated by toasty, buttery characters.

Winery
Coldstream Hills
A world class cool climate producer, Coldstream Hills was founded by wine writer James Halliday, who retains an association with this brand that now fits so neatly into Treasury Wine Estates' extensive folio. By any measure it is now a celebrated brand and one of true international standard, releasing wines of seamless balance and harmony. Now having reached its 30th anniversary, it's perhaps time it was given the credit it's due. Winemaker Andrew Fleming now has a green light to explore individual sites, as witnessed by the steadily increasing number of single vineyard wines under this label. Coldstream Hills has the luxury of only releasing Reserve level and single site wines when quality commands it, so is today one of the most dependable makers of Yarra Valley wine with a distinctive smooth, creamy and generously flavoured house style.
