What to Expect

Chardonnay is America's most popular grape and with good reason. Made in styles that range from steely, mineral laced wines with crisp green apple fruit to wines that are buttery, rich, and laden with tropical fruits, there is a Chardonnay that will appeal to every palate. Chardonnay is most closely associated with France's Burgundy region and California's Northern valleys though it has proven successful around the globe.

Winemakers Notes

The grapes for this delightful Chardonnay are sourced from the cool viticultural region of the Yarra Valley, north east of Melbourne. After destemming, the grapes are gently crushed and pressed into stainless steel tanks for cooling and settling prior to fermentation in French oak barriques, 25% of which are new. There is no malolactic fermentation performed in order to retain the natural acidity formed in the cool climate ripened grapes, but the lees are stirred in barrel during its 11 months ageing. Bottling is with a light filtration and fining. The resulting wine is pale straw in colour read more...

Varietal 100% Chardonnay Closure Screw Cap Size 750ml Acl/Vol 13% Enjoy Now - 2012 Colour of pale straw. Nose of citrus notes with soft minerality and great freshness. Good texture and roundness on the middle palate- linear acidity with wonderful length and precision. True to Tom Carson's winemaking style. What the critics think 2006 - "A complex wine- brings together strong stone fruit- melon and citrus cool-climate characters augmented by barrel ferment oak and less inputs. Bargain!".
