This sustainably farmed Chardonnay is from the Warramate foothills of Victoria's upper Yarra Valley. This is a mix of 3 clones, wild-fermented and aged in a mix of oak barriques and puncheons (20% new) for a layover of 8 months. Earthy throughout, with an alluring reductive edge: salty, wild herbs, and brisk white grapefruit pith brightening a leesy, green-fig core. Tight, driven and focused, this finessed wine has energy enough to enjoy very much now in youth, or to hold for the future.
