This single-vineyard wine captivates with aromas of grapefruit pith, lemon zest, and fresh ginger, offering a vibrant and fruit-driven bouquet. On the palate, it reveals layers of oyster shells, wet rocks, sea spray, and orchard fruits, harmoniously balanced with a pillowy fruit weight and a refreshing green apple crunch. The wine’s energy is palpable, driven by a pithy character and a slippery texture on the back palate that delivers extraordinary length and carry.

The structure is enhanced by an extremely fine-grained oak tannin framework, which supports the fruit beautifully and lingers elegantly on the finish. This Chardonnay showcases a unique combination of weight, texture, and precision, making it a standout example of the Yarra Valley’s cool climate expression.

Known for its cool maritime influence, the Yarra Valley region imparts distinctive mineral and citrus notes, which are evident in this vintage. The 2023 harvest benefited from ideal ripening conditions, resulting in a wine of remarkable purity and balance.
