Classic Dry White

"I nearly did a backflip when I tasted this phenomenal white. Made from a complex blend of Semillon, Chardonnay, Verdelho, Traminer and Sauvignon Blanc, it's nothing short of sensational and is my white wine of the year."

Tasting Notes > Wines > De Bortoli Deen Vat Series

Deen De Bortoli created his Vat Series with the idea of developing a range of delicious, full-flavoured wines at an affordable price. Deen personally selected the blends and chalked the numbers on the vats to identify them. The Vat Series includes traditional varietal wines and also wines made from interesting, newer varieties to Australia.
