Chardonnay

Mount Barker, Western Australia. A rich and flavoursome wine, yet shows wonderful restraint and elegance. There is a range of flavours all harmoniously integrated, including ripe nectarine fruit, mealy characters, cedary French oak, and grilled cashew nuts. Lively grapefruit acidity provides a...

Pemberton, Western Australia. Big berries, little berries - typical of the bunches out West. Oaked.

Frankland River, Western Australia. Honeydew melon and white peach flavours with hints of cinnamon on the palate with a creamy textural mouthfeel and a soft minerally acid backbone.

Finishes youthfully austere and persistent, with noteworthy lift to its firm lemon, orange and wild mint flavors, plus a suggestion of smoke that will doubtless become more pronounced as the wine ages...
