Shaw & Smith M3 Chardonnay 2007 $43.99 - for any occasion!  James Halliday gives this wine a massive 96 points, and reviews it as '....a worthy successor to the great 2006, coming from the same M3 vineyard and using the same winemaking techniques; beautifully crafted, with great depth and power; incredibly rich for a mere 13% alcohol, with lashings of fine French oak and stone fruits; the depth and power are offset by a complex mineral core and lively acidity
“The M3 Chardonnay is at the top of the Australian tree. Fine and elegant, all the components are seamlessly married, with quality oak framing the nectarine and citrus fruits.” The Australian November 2007
“This beautiful Adelaide Hills chardonnay gets better with each vintage........... as good as new wave Aussie chardonnay gets.” Max Allen, The Weekend Australian
