    About The Wine

    Appearance: Light straw, green hue and brilliant clarity.

    Aroma: This distinctive Macedon ranges chardonnay bursts from the glass with white florals, mineral notes, lemon and grapefruit pith. Hints of lees are complexed with toasty oak notes. The perfume is persistent and intriguing, pure, yet complex.

    Palate: Lemon zest and grapefruits spill immediately onto the palate. These fruit flavours are augmented with wild ferment characters such as choux pastry and barrel toast complexity. The wine walks a tightrope, with sherbet acidity and lime pith falling off the side yet a great punch of concentration. The mineral palate is long and intense yet continually develops. A chardonnay with real grown flavour from this special site.



    Review

    "Light and bright straw yellow hue. Yellow peach, butterscotch and flinty reductive aromatics. Big and powerful pineapple and peach fruits at the core, wrapped around that intense fruit is smoky nuts, bacon fat and flinty minerality. Everything is turned up to full volume and it runs very long."

    95 Points - Stuart Knox, The Real Review, Jan 2024
