- Vineyard Notes
This chardonnay fruit is from one of our best vineyards in the Hunter Valley.
- Winemaking
The wine has had minimal French oak contact and exhibits the characteristics of fresh citrus and minerals, the very flavours that made chardonnay famous in Australia in the late 70’s. The lifted nutty tones and creamy texture make it easy drinking.

Pale
- Bouquet
Citrus, blossom, almond and creamy oak
- Palate
Citrus and orange blossom carry onto the palate and are layered with creamy textured characters. Beautiful lifted nutty notes of hazelnuts are delivered by 9 months in puncheons and barriques. A delicate and fine bodied chardonnay.
- Peak Drinking / Cellaring Potential
Will be great for the next 5 years.
