- The bouquet has a complex floral lift of citrus and stone fruit, with some delicate lees aromas. Cool climate white fleshy stone fruits, citrus notes, and savory nutty oak flavors characterize the palate. This Chardonnay has a round, textured palate harmoniously balanced by a fine natural acidity that leads to a long, persistent finish.
The hand-picked fruit was whole bunch pressed and the unclarified juice was fermented in new, one and two year old French oak barriques. The wine was matured for 11 months, during which time it was stirred monthly, to build weight and complexity while retaining the freshness of fruit.

Winery | The vineyard is set in the classic cool climate sub-region of Red Hill at an altitude of 146 metres above sea-level. This north facing vineyard was one of the first planted by Lindsay McCall in 1985. The fruit for this wine was sourced from nine rows of the Paringa single vineyard, situated just next to the cellar door. The soil is the typical red volcanic soil known as Ferrasol. The vines are trained on a distinctive Lyre or ‘U’ trellis system which sits on an elaborate steel frame assembly. |
