De Bortoli Section A5 Yarra Valley Chardonnay
Warramate Marsanne Roussanne
Brilliant pale straw colour with highlights of green around the outskirts and a watery hue. Peach, apricot and honeysuckle aromas drift out of the glass followed by some ginger and spiced pear notes. Light in body but fleshy in its feel the palate features pear, peach and apricot fruits over a delicate honeysuckle and ginger spice back drop. Fresh acidity finishing supple and elegant. Drink over the next 4-5 years. Alc. 13%
Rob Dolan White Label Yarra Valley Chardonnay
Yering Station Chardonnay (CLR)
96pts Campbell Mattinson - "Straw-yellow. In the zone for flavour, texture and length. Peach, pear, grapefruit and spice notes generate excellent power but it’s the mouthfeel and overall class that really seal the deal. It’s complex at every turn but inviting and accessible too. A top example of modern Australian chardonnay."
OR Yering Station Chardonnay 750MLx6
This Yering Station Chardonnay has reached a beautifully creamy maturity. The bright peach flavors have softened into a smooth, honeyed richness, perfectly balanced by a "toasty" warmth from the oak that now feels like a gentle hint of roasted nuts. It’s silky and well-rounded on the palate, making it an incredibly easy-drinking white that punches well above its weight. If you love a white wine that is smooth, elegant, and full of character, this is at its absolute best right now.
Red Hill Estate Merricks Grove Chardonnay
The aromas of pineapple, white peach, nectarines and melon start the senses. On the palate you will also taste rockmelon, white peach and tropical fruits. This wine has a long length of flavour and a creamy mouth feel, finishing with elegant acidity.
Chandon Vintage Brut
Chandon Vintage Brut is a fine elegant sparkling produced from grapes sourced from multiple cool-climate regions, with a slant towards quality Yarra Valley fruit. A reductive, flinty aroma overlays quince, nashi pear, pine nut, citrus blossom and lemon zest. Toasty brioche and chalky mineral aromas present in the background. An excellent palate, with primary fruits of tangy lemon and kaffir lime, backed up by secondary flavours of fresh pastry. Tightly wound acidity with remarkable freshness.
Yering Station Chardonnay
