Chardonnay Day - Thursday May 22nd, 2025
Vera WineThere’s a lot to love about modern Chardonnays, and the wine community has dedicated a whole day (some a month!) to this mouth watering, shape shifting, food-loving grape. At Vera we love a Chardonnay, and that's why we proudly stock a stellar line up from local producers and global icons.
Fun Fact! Chardonnay is the most widely planted white grape variety in the world, with vineyards in Burgundy, California, Australia, New Zealand, South America and more!
What to eat? Roast chook, miso butter mushrooms, fish tacos, or even a cheeky mac & cheese.
Pop into the shop or have a look at our online selection. It’s time to reintroduce yourself to the queen of white wine.
Below we've pulled together our Top 3 Chardonnay selections for weeknight sippers, and those for when your feeling like splashing out.
'Mid-Week' Chardonnays
1. Punt Road Chardonnay 2024 - An absolute staple of any good wine selection. Lots of flintiness and honey suckle with tangerine and hints of nutty oak. $30
2. Run Free by Singlefile Chardonnay 2023 - This 2024 Chardonnay opens with vibrant lemon and stone fruit aromas, complemented by toasty oak spice. $30

'Treat Yourself' Chardonnays
