Previous vintages of the Australian Sticks Chardonnay have rated equally high, but the 2004 vintage is considered by many to be the best. Even those who do not normally appreciate white wine will be drawn to the delicate bouquet of peach, honeydew and light oak. Solid length and intensity. Drink now or cellar up to 2010.
