Tasting Notes

The bouquet is a harmonious blend of fresh and aged characteristics, offering an inviting introduction to the wine. It opens with enticing aromas of ripe stone fruits, such as white peach and nectarine, complemented by zesty citrus notes of lemon and grapefruit. Subtle secondary layers emerge, showcasing vanilla, butterscotch, and toasted oak, which reflect the influence of barrel ageing. A whisper of mineral freshness adds depth and elegance to the aromatic profile.

The palate is both rich and refined, with a medium to full body that delivers an ideal balance of fruit, acidity, and texture. Upfront flavours of ripe pear, melon, and golden apple dominate, supported by delicate hints of pineapple and citrus zest. The oak integration is masterful, providing soft notes of vanilla, hazelnut, and a touch of spice, without overpowering the fruit-driven core.

A vibrant, natural acidity weaves through the wine, ensuring a crisp and refreshing experience while adding structure and longevity. The texture is creamy and smooth, reflecting time spent on lees, yet it retains a subtle vibrancy that is characteristic of Hunter Valley Chardonnays.

The finish is long, clean, and sophisticated, with lingering notes of citrus, light oak spice, and a faint mineral salinity that recalls the terroir of the Hunter Valley. The persistence of flavours invites another sip, making it a wine that holds attention from start to finish.
