Inspiration for this wine has been drawn from the great wines of Burgundy, many of which show a level of elegance and restraint that is seldom seen in new world Chardonnay. All of our winemaking techniques such as barrel fermentation and stirring on lees have been practiced for many generations in the old world and are utilised to produce a richer and more complex wine.

The resultant wine has a restrained fragrance of figs and ripe melons combining beautifully with a delicious mouth-filling savouriness and acidity that comes from truly cool climate grapes.

Huon Hooke’s The Real Review 92/100 Points
Light to mid-yellow colour, bright. The bouquet is fresh and fruit-driven, with white-peach aromas, the acidity fresh and cleansing, the wine light and straightforward but showing admirable purity. A year or two in the bottle could bring greater rewards. 13 DEC 2020

Description

Crittenden Estate is one of the oldest family owned and operated wineries on the Mornington Peninsula. Established in 1982, they are passionate about creating quality cool climate wines that represent the region as well as their commitment to minimal input viticulture. After growing up on the farm, the second generation of Crittendens are now fully immersed in the family business.

Garry Crittenden’s son Rollo is now Winemaker whilst daughter Zoe takes care of the marketing. Rollo credits the quality of the Crittenden wines with the sustainable management of the vineyard that has been imperative in their processes for the last 15 years, vastly improving the quality of the soil and in turn the quality of the fruit and wine.

The second Crittenden generation, siblings Rollo and Zoe, both grew up among the vines watching their father make magic out of grape growing. These days they have embraced and taken on the family business with Rollo controlling the winemaking and general management and Zoe taking care of all of the marketing, allowing their father Garry to move into (semi!) retirement.
