Dark Horse Chardonnay is our go to white wine. It's big, bold, nicely oaked and great to drink any time. Reminiscent of the great Aussie Chardonnays of the 80s and 90s and rare to find many similar examples today. Widely available in most supermarkets, especially when they offer 25% discounts.

Our house white - old school, 90's chardonnay: big, bold and buttery. Horribly unfashionable and amazingly drinkable. Agree with others it was better a few years ago but still a favourite. Some people seem to hate it - a real bovril of a wine.

I love the rich oakness, fruit and pure drinkability of this wine. Unusual nowadays to find this combination at such a great price and availability.

If you like your chardonnay oaked, then this is the best at the price. Like Oz used to give us 20 25 years ago.

This is very quaffable wine - it is the only US wine that my husband and I have ever liked, so well worth tryIng before buying any other Chardonnay from California. Especially good value at £7.00; it normally retails at £8.50.
