Delatite High Ground Chardonnay 2022
Mansfield, Victoria. A lovely fresh wine that can be drunk whilst young, but like good Chablis it also has the potential to age over the next five years...

Delatite is a small family run winery that was established in 1982 by Robert and Vivienne Ritchie and now run by their son David. Specialising in cool climate wines, especially white aromatics, it is sited on a picturesque rise overlooking the vineyards toward Mt Buller in North-east Victoria.

As custodians of the land since the late nineteenth century, David and Catherine are committed to sustainable agricultural practices and winemaking with integrity. Since 2001 they have followed Biodynamic practices across all areas of vineyard operations and are applying for organic certification.

This style of Chardonnay is fruit driven and hand picked and whole bunch pressed when the fruit matured to the ripe peach and melon flavour spectrum. After chillling and cold settling the juice was allowed to warm up and ferment naturally with no yeast addition. Like all of our white wines it was cool fermented over several weeks helping to retain all of those lovely fruit characters whilst a portion was also barrel fermented. A lovely fresh wine that can be drunk whilst young, but like good Chablis it also has the potential to age over the next five years.
