19 Crimes Hard Chardonnay – 75cl

Big, buttery Australian Chardonnay for nights when “just a glass” turns into a whole vibe. 19 Crimes Hard Chardonnay is the pick when you want a white wine with real weight, a touch of oak, and flavours that don’t whisper.

If crisp, zippy whites leave you wanting more, this is your move. It’s a fuller-bodied Chardonnay that brings ripe fruit up front, then follows through with creamy texture and a toasted, vanilla-leaning finish. Basically, it drinks like comfort food.

• Appearance: Bright golden straw in the glass
• Nose: Ripe peach and baked apple, with vanilla and a toasty oak vibe
• Palate: Fuller-bodied and creamy, loaded with stone fruit, caramel-tinged sweetness, and a soft, round finish
• Body: Full-bodied
• Finish: Toasty, lingering, and gently buttery

Food pairing: Pour this with roast chicken and gravy, buttery popcorn (seriously), or a creamy mushroom pasta and thank yourself later.

This is a great “next step” bottle if you’ve been buying easy-drinking Pinot Grigio and you’re ready for more flavour and texture. Think of it like switching from a simple cheese pizza to a proper creamy alfredo, same comfort, way more richness.

Serve it chilled, not ice-cold. Give it a few minutes in the glass and it opens up, the fruit gets louder, the vanilla gets cozier, and the whole thing tastes more intentional.

Also, it’s built for real-life drinking. Weeknight dinner, friends dropping by, “I’m ordering takeout and pretending it’s self-care,” it fits all of it without you needing to overthink a single thing.

Fun Fact: 19 Crimes is obsessed with rebellious history, each bottle is inspired by real people who were exiled to Australia for breaking the rules.
