Viticulture

100% Chardonnay
2024
Yarra Valley
The challenges of spring, namely high rainfall and humidity gave way to consistently warm temperatures. These conditions saw an earlier than expected start to the season, and a very compressed vintage which produced balanced wines with concentrated flavours.

Tasting Notes

Pale gold
Nougat, cashew cream, lemon curd, honeysuckle flowers and juicy pomelo.
Fine white grapefuit phenolics wrap around a salty lemon acidity. Beautifully fragrant mix of white flowers, orange blossoms, frangipani. Light hints of bay leaf guide the white stonefuits through the palate. Persisent and elegant.
5-10 years

This is an example of precise Yarra engineering. Nothing is out of place; everything feels high spec; it’s tense of long and bristling with fruit. It tastes of hazelnuts and citrus, nectarines and nashi pears, green apple and slate. There’s a suggestion of green pineapple without ever really landing on it, and wafts of cedar too, along with a quick drift of herbs. Everything teams nicely. This is still very young but, even so, it’s very good.
