AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

The White Label Chardonnay is a masterful expression of cool-climate winemaking, showcasing Yarra Valley’s finesse. Eschewing the heavy-handed oak of yesteryear, this Chardonnay focuses on purity and minerality, creating a fresh, vibrant profile.

The nose is inviting, with delicate aromas of almond, green apple, and nectarine. On the palate, flavors of honeysuckle and lemon curd are layered with subtle notes of nutmeg and wet stone, delivering a harmonious balance of richness and elegance. The barrel fermentation and nine months of maturation in 30% new French oak impart a creamy texture and a gentle complexity, without overwhelming the fruit’s natural brightness.

Crafted from hand-harvested Willowlake Vineyard grapes, this wine was whole-bunch pressed and racked to light solids, ensuring precision and clarity. Vegan-friendly and with only 90 calories per 120ml glass, it’s a mindful yet indulgent choice.

Enjoy this Chardonnay now for its vibrant freshness, or cellar it for up to 15 years to savor its evolving depth. Perfect for unwinding with a simple yet luxurious dish like cacio e pepe, this wine elevates any moment with its refined character and effortless charm. A modern classic for both Chardonnay enthusiasts and skeptics alike.
