BK wines is not your average producer, the logo, the label, all giveaways that there is nothing conventional about this Adelaide Hills producer. The 2012 One Ball Chardonnay aligns with these expectations.

The nose has lime zest, grapefruit and a suggestion of stone fruits that gives an insight into the wines youth, purity of fruit and the precise acid to come on the palate.

This palate is all about texture and the interplay between zesty citrus fruits and the richer nectarine characters that are itching to express themselves.

It starts with tangy nectarine that is supported by some slight vanillin oak characters on the mid palate, sour edged citrus then takes hold, and along with tightly coiled mineral acidity delivers superb focus and depth on the finish.

This wine has an impressive future ahead of it, requiring and rewarding time.
