This chardonnay is picked early to retain natural acidity and citrus flavours. Unique structure, blended with a small portion of unoaked wine to increase the fresh lifted fruit on the palate. The result of a 5 year discovery of Hunter Valley Chardonnay.
This Single Vineyard Reserve Chardonnay is a celebration of the skill and determination of viticulturalist Liz Riley, vineyard manager Dave Grosser, international wine consultant John Belsham and owner Karin Adcock. We think you'll love this impressive wine.
2021 was a cracking year for Chardonnay in the Hunter and this wine has pure fruit notes of white peach and citrus, well integrated oak and a textured palate.
The style of this chardonnay is textural and savoury. The crisp, mineral characters of the fruit are supported by complex flavours of oak and lees maturation.
A complex bouquet of citrus and peach fruit characters. Barrel fermentation adding charred oak and cashew nut to the nose and palate. The flavours of stone fruit and lemon zest are sustained with fresh acid and toasty oak in a rich well structured wine.
A progressive and elegant style of Hunter Valley Chardonnay. Aromas of melon and preserved citrus peel are layered with toasty oak to complete the nose.
An opulent, creamy palate is underpinned by a beautiful line of acidity and a long lingering finish. With careful cellaring this Chardonnay will continue to develop beautifully, or enjoy its youthful vibrancy now.
