I say: Not good, bitter maybe acidity. Wanted to stop drinking. Would use with cooking food.

They Say:
McWilliam’s Hanwood Estate blends parcels of fruit, sourced from McWilliam’s extensive vineyard resources, to create wines which are consistent in quality and style from year-to-year. The result is fruit focused wines with great structure that are consistently complex.
A really good chardonnay, very similar to Michael Unwins Black Hen Chardonnay. Really clean and crisp to the palate. Smells peachy with traces of Oak. Being a tight arse, I would go for the Black Hen, as you can get 2 litres for $10, instead of Hanwood's 750ml for $10.
A great blend : 4 / 5
