title: Maverick 2012 Breechens Chardonnay-Semillon (Barossa)
description: Australia used to make more blends like this, using the acids of Semillon to balance the ripeness of Chardonnay. In this case, they come together to offer toasty, honeyed notes backed by a strong lemony spine. It's crisp and tart on the finish at first, then relaxes rapidly with airing, so drink it over the next year or so.
variety: Chardonnay-Semillon
designation: Breechens
