Tasting Notes

Appearance

Bright, luminous straw — fresh and inviting, with the clarity that no-intervention winemaking and a cool, free-draining Upper Yarra site deliver.

Aroma

Forward and lively — expressive cool-climate Chardonnay with the aromatic precision of Macclesfield fruit and the depth and generosity of Woori Yallock.

Palate

Balanced and beautifully structured — mid-palate weight from Woori Yallock, finesse and a long acid drive from Macclesfield. Natural balance and purity with no acidification or manipulation required.

Pairs With

Grilled fish, roast chicken, pasta with cream sauces, and soft cheeses — equally rewarding now or with short-term cellaring.

Finish

Long and driven — the natural acidity of Macclesfield fruit providing a clean, refreshing close that speaks to the quality of the site and the age of the vines.
