Description

  • French oak
  • Peach
  • Melon
  • Medium-bodied

Very pale straw with a green tinge. Tight and bright early picked peach and melon notes carried on a weighty palate, culminating in a fresh & crisp finish with the most interesting of oak nuances. Medium bodied, seriously delicious Australian Chardonnay! In a good cellar this wine will last for 2-3 years.

Following good rains during winter, good soil moisture along with warm Spring days leading into the 2021 vintage allowed the vines to enjoy a good growing season with crops returning to an average size. Relatively mild summer temperatures enabled the fruit to retain higher than normal acidity and freshness of flavour. Harvest began mid-January for the white grapes, with red grapes starting a month later and all Riverina fruit harvested prior to the end of March. Good yields and very good quality.

This wine was fermented cool over a two week period. Selected parcels were fermented with the inclusion of French oak. Once fermentation was complete the wines were matured on fine yeast lees over 3 months to build palate weight.

A celebration of our Italian roots, planted in Australian soil. Enjoyed internationally, these wines reflect the styles of wine that have been appreciated by the De Bortoli family for four generations.
