The Yeringberg Chardonnay straddles the magic sweet-spot between a bold, traditional toasty Chardonnay and the modern fresher styles in the variety that the Yarra Valley has become known for.

Hand-picked from hillside blocks that balance ripeness with cool-climate freshness, the fruit is whole-bunch-pressed and fermented in French oak barrels (30% new). Lees stirring adds that unmistakable creamy texture, while the cool 2022 vintage ensured the wine retained a fine mineral edge.

Lifted aromas of white peach, lemon zest, and roasted almond lead into a palate thats both generous and precise. Layers of stone fruit, lemon curd, and oak spice unfold, with a flinty streak and a long, clean finish tying it all together.

It’s a classic style of Chardonnay – one for traditionalists and contemporary wine lovers alike.

“A combination of natural and inoculated ferments, then racked to 25% new oak with 25% mlf. A bright green gold. Attractive scents of ripe stone fruits, lemon confiture, honey and hazelnuts that are echoed on theflavourful, silky, gently viscous and long palate. At the more hedonistic end of the Yarra chardonnay spectrumand a delicious wine to drink now and over the next three to five years.”
