WINEMAKER NOTES

Specially selected parcels of Chardonnay from our own vineyards and some from long term growing partners across Central Victoria were harvested in the cool of the night to preserve the fresh fruit flavors and delicate aromas. Each parcel was cool fermented separately in stainless steel, with some parcels being aged on lees, and some on French oak for a few months or both.

food match

Pork loin chops with an apricot glaze and roasted sweet potatoes, or pumpkin ravioli in a sage brown butter sauce, sprinkled with Parmesan.
