2007 International Chardonnay Challenge

 

The chairman of judges, Mike DeGaris from Australia, has chosen 6 wines from all gold and silver awarded wines across all classes - representing wines that are easily available, good value and representative of the stylistic variation possible in Chardonnay.

 

The Silks range is a rising 4-year-old with impeccable breeding and is proving to be both a sure bet and a stayer. Certainly the results speak for themselves. The range offers exceptional value for its recommended retail price point of $19.95.
