Selected journalists and writers were surveyed about Australian Chardonnay regarding stylistic changes, best value price points and other points.

Most agreed that the style is getting better.

In the best value price point range of $20 to $30 50% thought Australian Chardonnay was the best value.

Sorry California. 88% thought that Australian Chardonnay was a better value than Chardonnay from California.

The 2011Leeuwin Estate Prelude Chardonnay at $4 above the $30 range is a Chardonnay for those California Chardonnay value lovers.
