Description
Sourced from Tumbarumba’s finest vineyards nestled in the foothills of the Snowy Mountains in NSW, at an elevation between 500-650m.
Tasting Note
Our Tumbarumba Chardonnay displays the classic cool climate citrus and melon intensity of the region, with subtle smoky oak in support. A full flavoured wine with a long, complex finish.
Vineyard
The fruit was sourced from two of Tumbarumba’s top vineyards and picked in mid-March.
Winemaking
Our Chardonnay was barrel fermented with wild yeast then 100% of it underwent malolactic fermentation followed by maturation in a combination of new and 1-3 year old barrels. The result is a beautifully textured wine with elegant citrus and melon fruit and complex honeyed, cream and biscuit notes.
Cellaring
Though drinking beautifully now, this fine wine will gain further complexity and interest over the next 4-5 years.
Food Match
This elegant wine is an ideal match for shellfish, poultry, and soft creamy cheeses.
