Giant Steps Yarra Valley Chardonnay 2023 showcases the elegance and complexity that the renowned Yarra Valley is celebrated for. Crafted from 100% hand-picked grapes, this Chardonnay is a testament to meticulous winemaking and the unique terroir of one of Australia's premier wine regions.

The grapes are gently chilled overnight before undergoing whole bunch pressing, ensuring delicate extraction of flavors. The juice is then fermented naturally with indigenous yeasts in 500L French oak puncheons, 15% of which are new oak, imparting subtle layers of vanilla and spice while maintaining the wine’s vibrant fruit character. With only about 10% of the wine undergoing malolactic fermentation, the finish remains fresh and crisp, balanced by lees stirring that adds texture and complexity.

Recognized as one of the Top 100 Wineries in the World, Giant Steps consistently delivers wines that capture the essence of the Yarra Valley’s cool climate. The 2023 vintage reflects the region’s ideal growing conditions, producing Chardonnay with bright acidity, refined minerality, and expressive stone fruit notes. This wine beautifully expresses the distinctiveness of celebrated single vineyard sites, offering a harmonious blend of citrus, white peach, and subtle oak nuances.
