The company was founded by Martin Shaw and Michael Hill Smith MW, and the inaugural vintage was in 1990. Shaw + Smith is famous for its high-quality wines made from Chardonnay and Shiraz, as well as a range of other grape varieties. The estate is comprised of two vineyards in the Adelaide Hills: the Balhannah vineyard purchased in 1999; and the Lenswood vineyard, established in 2012. Balhannah's cool climate and free-draining sandy loam soils are well suited to grape varieties like Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir, as well as Shiraz, which is used to make the single-vineyard Balhannah Vineyard Shiraz. Lenswood is planted on a hillside on fertile brown loam and clay soils, and is planted to Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc. Shaw + Smith uses a wide range of oak treatments in its wines, including new and old French barriques as well as larger 500-liter puncheons.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-01-25T10:26:46-05:00","created_at":"2024-01-19T09:16:10-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Australia","NK180124","Other_Wine","Producer_Shaw + Smith","Region_Adelaide Hills","Source_WineOnlineDelivery0124","Type_White Wine","Varietal_Chardonnay"],"price":52100,"price_min":52100,"price_max":52100,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44218905854090,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2020 | Shaw + Smith | M3 Chardonnay","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":52100,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/6_47f44d02-4846-4229-be2d-b853e545debe.webp?v=1705673820"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/6_47f44d02-4846-4229-be2d-b853e545debe.webp?v=1705673820","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2020 | Shaw + Smith | M3 Chardonnay at CaskCartel.com","id":25936470016138,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.724,"height":660,"width":478,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/6_47f44d02-4846-4229-be2d-b853e545debe.webp?v=1705673820"},"aspect_ratio":0.724,"height":660,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/6_47f44d02-4846-4229-be2d-b853e545debe.webp?v=1705673820","width":478}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhite Wine: 2020 | Shaw + Smith | M3 Chardonnay\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAiming for elegance, restraint and the ability to age, acid is bright and there’s generosity of flavor.
