Tasting Notes
Region
Hunter Valley
The Story
In 2019 we selected the best barrels from our Steven and LDR Vineyards and blended them to produce this wine. It is the style of Chardonnay that we love to drink. Fine, elegant, complex and well balanced wine.
The Wine
Subtle aromas of vanillin oak and melon, with a hint of green pear. The wine is balanced with the creamy texture from maturation in French Oak.
Medium length makes this a balanced modern Australian Chardonnay.
The Vintage
Low yields, small bunches and excepetional fruit profile were the hallmarks of the 2019 vintage. A good growing and picking season resulted in high quality fruit coming off our vineyards,
The Potential
This wine is drinking very well as a young wine but will continue to improve with 8-15 years further cellaring. Add a six pack to add to your cellar and open one each year to see the development.
The Match
Our 2019 Limited Release Chardonnay is the perfect match for grilled Spatchcock with celery leaf salad and a lemon butter sauce. Delicious!
