Description

From the renowned Winmark Vineyard and the unique slopes of the Hollydene Estate, this Chardonnay is an amalgamation of two of the purest expressions of fruit in the Hunter Valley.

Maturation in 100% French oak with gentle batonage delivers brilliant lemon sorbet acid and characters of white nectarine and peach.

This chardonnay has structure to stand the test of time and will continue to develop beautifully in the years to come.

A well-made wine with excellent fruit clarity. The fruit has pleasing restraint, with just the right amount of juiciness on the mid-palate. Lovely texture.
