This trio brings together three distinct expressions of Chardonnay from across our vineyards.
“Pale straw with green hues. A core citrus fruit melds with a fusion of ginger, oatmeal, white floral, mandarin blossom, oak spice and oyster shell. On the palate, tight lemony acidity and quenching white nectarine fruit are balanced with creamy and textural flavours of nougat and crème brûlée. Wet river stone, and a dash of savoury chicken stock make for an alluring classic Chardonnay.” Simon Black, Chief Winemaker. (95 points, 2025 Halliday Wine Companion)
‘’A single vineyard wine made from our home vineyard in Red Hill South. Comprised of 59% North Face block (clone P58) and 41% South Face block (clone I10V1). Our Estate Chardonnay is built on a core of citrus fruit together stone fruits of nectarine and white peach. After some challenging weather events in late spring, impacting yields, the weather Gods provided perfect conditions leading into harvest. Slate and flint, lemon curd, crème brulee, lime splice, roasted hazelnuts, white florals, a lick of sulphides all chime in to play their part. The influence of spicy French oak compliments the generous fruit profile which is tied together with bright and energetic naturally acidity and a textural, creamy finish.'' Simon Black, Chief Winemaker. The 2023 release continues this legacy with freshness and drive.
"Quartz colour with green hues. A core of white peach and honeydew fruit with lemon butter, savoury chicken stock and a curious note of Fruit Tingles. This is a wine of breadth, weight and generosity. It feels glossy and polished with juicy white peach fruit yet lively with zippy lemon acidity. There’s a slate-like mineral feel and chewy mid-palate structure." Simon Black, Chief Winemaker. (96 points, 2025 Halliday Wine Companion)
