McPherson's The Full Fifteen Chardonnay 2015
South Eastern Australia
In the 1980s Aussie Chardonnay got us ‘poms’ hooked on the whole wine thing. We’ve since been won over by Sauvignon and Pinot Grigio but sales suggest Chardonnay is making a comeback. The Full Fifteen is a fresh and peachy Australian classic.

We asked our old Aussie mate Andrew ‘Big Mac’ McPherson to make us a ‘Chardie’ to go with his popular Full Fifteen red. A ‘no holds barred’ Chardonnay, yet balanced and well proportioned. Andrew grew up in the world of wine and went on to work for some top names in Australia before settling down to craft really characterful, great value wines like this one, under his own name. A small amount of fermentation in oak has lent The Full Fifteen Chardonnay lovely toasty nuances, a nutty complexity and a soft creamy character. It’s an everyday wine that tastes much more expensive thanks to top quality grapes and Andrew’s know-how. With fresh, multi layered flavours, it’s lovely with herby dishes such as tarragon chicken or baked cod and fennel.
