- Classic cool-climate Chardonnay, with lifted aromas of white blossom, pear, and grapefruit, leading to an energetic palate full of white nectarine, citrus, and subtle vanilla toasty notes, wrapped up in a tightly wound core of acidity. A wetter-than-usual start to the season resulted in lower-yielding crops, which were up to 50% lower than usual in some varieties. However, the lower quantity meant the fruit quality was excellent, with vines producing intense flavour and fruit concentration.

The Chardonnay grapes were barrel fermented with a combination of wild and selected yeasts for 10 to 14 days. The wine did not undergo malolactic conversion. It was racked to 500-litre French oak puncheons, of which 20% were new, where it spent nine months maturing.

| Winery | Situated just 45 kilometres east of Melbourne, the Yarra Valley is a large and diverse cool-climate wine region. Its elevation spectacularly ranges from lows of 50m to heights of 1,250m, due to the influence of the Great Dividing Range. The region is characterized by significant rainfall during winter and spring, which helps to nourish the vines throughout the dry but cool summers. The estate Chardonnay vines are clones of Mendoza, P58, and I10V5, which vary in age from five to 22 years. They are cane-pruned VSP trained, which suits the terroir of Duplex grey loam over yellow clay soils. In each vintage, precision viticulture is used to map and isolate the finest parcels from the best blocks and even the best rows. Such practices include innovative soil and canopy mapping technology known as EM38; this enables the viticulture team to unearth microvariations within the parcels. The vineyard is machine and hand-harvested. |
