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 grapefruit phenolics wrap around a salty lemon acidity. Beautifully fragrant mix of white flowers, orange blossoms, frangipani. Light hints of bay leaf guide the white stonefruits through the palate. Persistent and elegant. |

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.

Barrel fermented and matured in puncheons (13% new) and a little mlf. Mainly estate grown. A very bright green gold. Quite a step up on the Village Chardonnay at a still very reasonable price. Complex aromas of stone fruits, grilled nuts and a little matchstick. There's good grip to on the nicely intense and well-balanced palate. Finishes pithy and long. I imagine this will age nicely over the short to medium term.

The well-proportioned 2024 Yarra Valley Chardonnay opens with generous wafts of nectarine and white peach, complemented by subtle, well-balanced toasty oak. The palate is punchy, showing a solid core of tropical flavours lifted by crushed nut complexity and touches of smoky reduction that build over a lengthy finish. Still a little tight but with good potential to age well.
