TASTING NOTES

PALATE

Classic Tumbarumba, bright citrus fruits, stone fruits, white flowers, alpine herbs. Some excellent complexity throgh barrel fermentation. Great length and concentration!

REGION NOTES

Nestled in the Maragle Valley, just 50 km north of Mount Kos- ciuszko and near the Victorian border, this vineyard is unlike any other in Tumbarumba. Sitting at 500m above sea level, it lies un- usually low for the region — but its proximity to the Snowy Moun- tains creates a remarkable diurnal range: warm days followed by sharp, cooling nights as cold mountain air rushes in at sunset. This unique microclimate — shared by only one other vineyard — produces strikingly full flavour at lower sugar levels, which is ex- actly what drew us to this site years ago. And in 2024, it delivered something special.

WINEMAKERS COMMENTS

Our approach to winemaking is very simple, to craft uncompli- cated wines of purity. To do so we ultimately seek balance in our wines and utilise winemaking techniques or lack thereof that emphasise purity and expresion of fruit. We think in pursuing this philospohy, the fundamental objectives of crafting wines that reflect the environment they are grown in will take care of itself.

FOOD MATCHING

This style of chardonnay lends itself to classic pairings. Oysters perhaps being the most obvious one but any light seafood would pair perfectly with this wine.

VINIFICATION

Hand picked, whole bunch pressed direct to Amphora and French Oak puncheons for 12 months followed by 6 months maturation in stain- less steel prior to bottling.
