This modern refined style of Chardonnay exhibits all the typical characters of the Adelaide Hills, displaying white peach, citrus and grapefruit’s with a fine acid line.

PALATE

Careful lees work and oak selection give this wine complexity and structural support.

REGION NOTES

Premium vineyards from the district, Oakbank, Lenswood, Lobethal and the Piccadilly Valley were selected for this Chardonnay. Each small parcel provides a different profile giving an overall complex wine, clonal material included Bernard clones 76, 96 with parcels from I10V1.

VINTAGE NOTES

Chardonnay thrived in the Adelaide Hills in 2025, with early budburst followed by a long, dry growing season and consistently cool evening temperatures. Low rainfall and minimal disease pressure encouraged slow, even ripening, retaining natural acidity and drive. The resulting fruit showed excellent balance, concentration and clear site expression.

VINIFICATION

The fruit was hand picked then kept in cold storage at two degrees for several days. The fruit is whole bunch and whole berry pressed straight to barrel with a mix of barriques, puncheons and Foudre with 25% new oak. The juice was fermented naturally with partial malolactic fermentation, to add complexity.
