$250.00 GST Included

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

Sourced from the premium Longest View vineyard in Geelong, the maritime site is reflected in a minerality and saltiness which frames the wine. This is a true and perfect example of maritime Chardonnay.

White nectarine fruits and lemon curd jump from the glass. Almond husk and hints of melon add further intrigue. Flicks of graphite and some oak derived toast.

Deeply concentrated, fruit characters of nectarine and pear envelop the palate whilst graphite oak and nutty undertones bring layers and depth to the finish. The maritime site is reflected in a minerality and saltiness which frames the wine. Finely intertwined acidity lifts and connects the parts which come together to form a powerful and memorable whole. A great example of maritime Chardonnay.

Description

“At Shadowfax we want our vineyards to express their own unique characters and the wine grown there to talk to the one who’s drinking it, by telling its own story. The grapes grown must reflect the site, thus each vineyard site must be grown depending on its own requests. If you look, listen and taste (both grape, vine and soil) the vineyard will tell you its needs and wants.

Whether that be some foliage manipulation, fruit thinning or it may be screaming out for a little drink, we will act. We are not afraid of new ideas, experimentation, trials and tribulation, whilst having a ball doing so. We want the vineyard to do the talking using the wine glass as its stage.”
