The Chardonnay grapes were barrel fermented with a combination of wild and selected yeasts for ten days. The wine did not undergo malolactic conversion, retaining balancing acidity. It was racked to 500-litre French oak puncheons, of which 20% were new, where it spent ten months maturing.

Winery | Situated just 45 kilometres east of Melbourne, the Yarra Valley is a large and diverse cool-climate wine region. Its elevation spectacularly ranges from lows of 50m to heights of 1,250m, due to the influence of the Great Dividing Range. The region is characterized by significant rainfall during winter and spring, which helps to nourish the vines throughout the dry but cool summers. The estate Chardonnay vines for this wine are all the Mendoza clones, which vary in age from 10 to 22 years. They are cane-pruned VSP trained, which suits the terroir of Duplex grey loam over yellow clay soils. In each vintage, precision viticulture is used to map and isolate the finest parcels from the best blocks and even the best rows. Such practices include innovative soil and canopy mapping technology known as EM38; this enables the viticulture team to unearth microvariations within the parcels. The vineyard is hand-harvested. |
