Yabby Lake Tasmania Coal River Chardonnay

Product Description: The 2023 Yabby Lake Tasmania Coal River Chardonnay is a stunning debut from the newly acquired Tasmanian vineyard in the Coal River Valley. Handpicked in early April, the fruit was carefully handled and transferred to Yabby Lake’s winery under climate-controlled conditions. The wine underwent fermentation in 500L French oak barrels, with 20% of the barrels being new to impart subtle complexity. The resulting wine is a vibrant, textured Chardonnay, with aromas of citrus blossom, orchard fruits, and a touch of struck match. The palate is concentrated and rounded, with a perfect balance between fruit and acidity. The wine promises excellent aging potential, making it a must-try for collectors and Chardonnay enthusiasts alike. Maker: Yabby Lake was founded by the Kirby family, who are passionate about producing wines that reflect the unique character of their vineyards. Winemaker Tom Carson, with years of experience in the industry, leads the team with a deep understanding of both the land and the seasons. With a focus on crafting wines that express the purity of each vintage, Yabby Lake specialises in Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, though the estate also grows small amounts of Pinot Gris and Syrah. The team at Yabby Lake embraces a hands-on approach to viticulture, carefully selecting and handling each parcel separately to bring out the best in the fruit. The recent acquisition of a vineyard in Tasmania’s Coal River Valley marks an exciting new chapter for the winery, further expanding its capacity to produce exceptional wines with the same commitment to quality that has defined Yabby Lake since its inception. Philosophy: Yabby Lake’s winemaking philosophy revolves around creating wines that express the essence of their vineyard and the unique characteristics of each vintage. Each parcel of fruit is hand-selected, and the team takes a meticulous approach, often bottling individual parcels under the ‘Single Block Release’ label if they stand out for their distinct personality. Winemaker Tom Carson emphasises a deep understanding of the vineyards, allowing the team to make intuitive decisions that enhance the wines' expression. The winery’s commitment to quality is evident in their dedication to sustainability, with all aspects of the vineyard and winery operations focused on preserving the environment while crafting wines of exceptional character. The recent expansion into Tasmania's Coal River Valley allows Yabby Lake to continue this journey, exploring the nuances of a new terroir while maintaining their unwavering commitment to producing top-tier Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Tasting Notes: Nose Citrus Blossom, Orchard Fruits, and Hazelnut The nose is delicate and aromatic, with notes of citrus blossom, ripe orchard fruits, and a hint of struck match. There’s also a touch of hazelnut that adds a layer of complexity. Palate Concentrated, Rounded, and Textured The palate is concentrated and round, with a serious texture and mouthfeel. The fruit is perfectly balanced by fresh acidity, creating a harmonious and elegant profile. Finish Precise and Long The finish is precise and long, with lingering fruit and mineral notes, promising years of further development.

Fletcher C23 Langhe DOC Chardonnay

Product Description: The Fletcher C23 Langhe DOC Chardonnay 2023 showcases the exceptional quality and craftsmanship that David Fletcher has cultivated since his move to Barbaresco. Sourced from a combination of established vineyards and David’s own plots, this Chardonnay is a true reflection of its unique terroir. With a focus on organic viticulture and minimal intervention, this wine combines fresh, bright acidity with complexity and elegance. The 2023 vintage is the result of careful whole-bunch pressing and natural fermentation, aged in a mix of new and older French oak barrels. The outcome is a balanced, textured wine with vibrant citrus and orchard fruit notes, and a creamy, mineral finish. Maker David Fletcher’s journey to producing exceptional Nebbiolo began in 2004, when his passion for this iconic Italian grape led him to Italy. Immersing himself in the traditions of Barbaresco and Barolo, he honed his craft and dedication to Nebbiolo, ultimately creating Fletcher Wines to blend his love for Italian winemaking with Australia’s unique terroir. By 2012, Fletcher settled in Barbaresco, where he continues to produce wines that reflect both the best of Italian tradition and Australian innovation. Fletcher’s self-professed obsession with Nebbiolo has become the cornerstone of his winemaking philosophy. An Australian by birth, Fletcher’s journey to the Langhe hills of Piemonte was driven by an undeniable passion for Nebbiolo’s transcendent quality, and now, he calls Barbaresco home. Starting his winemaking career early, Fletcher didn’t inherit a winery or follow a family tradition—his passion for winemaking grew organically, alongside his love for the land and the grape variety he reveres. Today, Fletcher’s wines are a testament to his dedication, not only to Nebbiolo but to the unique expression it can have in both Italy and Australia. With the production of no more than 25,000 bottles annually, Fletcher Wines remains a highly sought-after, small-scale winery with a focus on quality over quantity. His ability to craft world-class Nebbiolo, alongside his expanding portfolio of wines, is a reflection of his ongoing commitment to pushing boundaries and continuing the exploration of this exceptional grape. Philosophy David Fletcher’s winemaking philosophy is built on a foundation of organic viticulture, sustainability, and the pursuit of both tradition and innovation. With a commitment to certified organic vineyards and sites in conversion, Fletcher is dedicated to cultivating healthier vines and creating a lower environmental impact. In response to the increasing monoculture in the Langhe, he has also invested in preserving biodiversity by owning land in forests, swamps, and grasslands, offsetting the land used for grape production. Fletcher sees himself as fortunate to make wines in the Langhe, a region rich with winemaking history, but he values the freedom to deconstruct tradition and craft wines without boundaries. He embraces spontaneous ferments using the ‘pied de cuve’ method and works with old wood barrels to bring out the unique character of each wine. With a focus on small batches, no filtering or fining, and minimal intervention, Fletcher allows the wine to evolve naturally, reflecting both his passion and the distinctiveness of the terroir. Always searching for the best vineyards, Fletcher’s wines aim to capture a true sense of place and continue to push boundaries, crafting wines that are both innovative and a tribute to the land they come from. NOSE: Citrus and Orchard Fruits with Subtle Oak Fresh and vibrant, with notes of zesty lemon, ripe peach, and green apple. A delicate hint of vanilla and toasted oak adds a layer of complexity, blending seamlessly with the fruit-driven aromas. PALATE: Textured and Balanced with Lively Acidity Crisp citrus fruit, complemented by creamy mouthfeel and subtle nuances of almond and brioche. The wine maintains a bright acidity that balances its richness, offering a harmonious and well-rounded structure. FINISH: Long, Mineral-Infused Finish Lingering notes of citrus zest and a touch of flinty minerality. This refreshing, crisp finish highlights the wine’s focus and precision, leaving a lasting impression of elegance. Reviews and Accolades: “A balanced, textured wine with vibrant citrus and orchard fruit notes.” – Wine Enthusiast “A beautiful example of Chardonnay from the Langhe, with elegance and complexity.” – Wine Advocate
