- Tasting Notes
Chardonnay sourced from our Stephanie vineyard in the historic Parish of Pokolbin and vinified using French Oak and battonage.
2022 produced a quality Hunter vintage with the Lan Nina influence resulting in a cooler, milder and extended growing season.
The aroma shows white peach, lemon, apple and hazelnut. The palate displays vibrant, tangy citrus and stone fruit flavours, complimented by the nougat like French Oak.
