The producer’s home turf is the coldest, wettest pocket of the Adelaide Hills, with the conditions to grow Chardonnay that keeps its freshness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 2024 comes entirely from Piccadilly Valley fruit, fermented with indigenous yeasts and matured for nine months in new and used French oak. There’s enough oak to round out the wine without taking over.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhite nectarine, apple and lemon lead the way, with a little pastry richness underneath. It has a creamy feel, but the acidity and gentle grapefruit-like grip keep the finish fresh and persistent.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is an easy one to recommend if you like your Chardonnay with some generosity but plenty of zip.
