Is this Australia's best Chardonnay? If not then it shares the rarified air reserved for only the finest examples. Rich yet restrained, with mineral notes, cashew and almond meal, amazing fruit complexity and wonderful length...why not try the benchmark?

Bouchard Pere and Fils is the largest vineyard owner of grands crus and premiers crus in Burgundy. This Premier Cru parcel is tended by a vine-grower who takes care of the vineyard up to the harvest.

Yarra Yering, well known for their pristine and elegant red wines, also make one of the Yarra Valley's premier Chardonnays. Made solely from the original 1969 plantings, the Yarra Yering Chardonnay is fermented traditionally in open top fermenters and crafted to age in bottle for extended periods. The wine goes through 100% malolactic fermentation which adds complexity and roundness without foregoing natural acidity and structure. Aged in 40% new French oak, this classic white wine combines intense opulence with finesse & textural flintiness.

J.J Prüms Goldkapsel bottlings are special selections that represent the very pinnacle of the estates wines. The Graacher Himmelreich Auslese Goldkapsel lives up to its name; incredibly intense and multi-layered it shows superlative balance, vibrancy and power with a unique energy and tension in the best years that is utterly awe inspiring. It has the concentration and structure to age gracefully for decades.

Jean Noel Gagnard handed his eponymous Domaine to his daughter Caroline Lestimé in 1989. She had studied business in Paris, before returning to the village to take over the reins of the family estate, and had to handle male chauvinism at its most rampant. Nonetheless, she has followed her own convictions, and enhanced (rather than diminished) the reputation of this fine producer. In the vineyard, she uses no fertilisers or herbicides, but has not taken hold of the biodynamic bible.- James Halliday The exact meaning of Les Caillerets is uncertain but it is an old French word for stones, and the soils of this first-growth vineyard are very pebbly. The JNG parcel, barely more than one hectare facing south-east at 300-310m at the southern end... gives a beautifully balanced, precise wine with marvellous purity of fruit and a long crisp finish (Norman & Taylor, Great Domaines of Burgundy).
