Also vinified sparkling and widely exported (Sonoma, Margaret River, Casablanca). A Burgundian variety, a cross of Pinot Noir × Gouais Blanc, half-sibling of Aligoté.

The wine region of Upper Hunter Valley
GI sub-region of the Hunter Valley (NSW), further inland (Denman, Scone, Muswellbrook) at slightly higher altitude: Chardonnay dominates (70%+) with rich oaked flavours of peach and cream, sometimes blended with Semillon into aromatic whites. Robust reds complement. Warmer and drier than Lower Hunter, free-draining sandy-loamy soils — favourable dry season delivers crisp white profiles without excessive subtropical humidity.
The wine region of Nouvelle-Galles du Sud
Australia's 2nd wine state with diverse regions. Iconic Hunter Valley: a Sémillon unlike any other, straight, low-alcohol dry whites with vivid citrus when young, evolving over 10-20 years toward honey, toast and lanolin. Medium-bodied Hunter Shiraz, spicy and earthy (leather, red fruits). Also round Chardonnay and aromatic Verdelho.
The word of the wine: Full-bodied
A rich, concentrated wine that offers consistency in the mouth.
