Founded by James Halliday, Yarra Valley's Coldstream Hills winery has a reputation for producing quality wine. Their Chardonnay exhibits attractive regional characters of stone-fruit and citrus. An ideal accompaniment to white meat and pasta dishes.

Picked from a block of gris on the Napoleone Vineyard in the Yarra Valley which is nurtured to hang a touch longer, with better tannin maturity than the fruit picked for the Punt Road Pinot Gris. Whole berry and whole bunch ferments are conducted in isolation in one-tonne open pots. They were pressed separately to oak this year, but in the end both went in their entirety into the blend. The bunch ferments developed a very significant funk this year, and it was good to see this in the finished wine. The berry ferments supply musk flavour and fruit sweetness. Its all about the bunch though: Campari, aniseed and kombucha. Unfined and minimally filtered. The perfect companion in Spring or Summer.

Little bit of old school Vs new school Chardonnay here. Chardonnay that tastes like Chardonnay. Nice and textured with generosity while still being fresh. A ripping acid line that brings it all together. This is a Tuesday night in a glass kind of Chardonnay, did someone say Nannas roast chicken?

Organically farmed Sauvignon Blanc from Yarra Valley

Aromas of green apple and toasted almonds characterise this 2021 Yarra Valley Chardonnay. On the palate, flavours of pineapple and honeydew melon unfold, complemented by a touch of butterscotch. Crisp acidity and a silky texture lead to a refreshing finish with hints of spice and lemon curd.

The Estate Vineyard wines are elegant, handcrafted wines that reflect the unique characters of the De Bortoli Yarra Valley Estate in Dixons Creek. Gently fragrant with classic perfumed Pinot Gris characters of pear and orange blossom. Textural flavours, soft acidity, stone fruits classic 'Gris' style.

The Estate Vineyard consists of a series of small plots of mature Chardonnay. Citrus florals, mineral, complex, white flowers and stone fruit. Purity of flavour, lovely shape, dry, savoury and delicious.
