2019 can be considered as a challenging and labour intensive year. Cooler than average temperatures during spring and summer, coupled with reduced solar exposure and an increase in afternoon humidity during ripening made canopy management critical to prevent disease and optimise sun exposure. A great year however for aromatic whites.

Winemaking
Select parcels of premium Chardonnay fruit is sourced from our partner growers in Wilyabrup – the heart of the Margaret River growing region. This fruit is then crushed fermented and aged in both new and used French oak barriques for a period of 12 months. After this time barrel selection takes place and the “reserve” chardonnay is assembled together before bottling.

Tasting Notes
Yet again the winery team have crafted an exceptional Chardonnay. The nose is intense with tropical and citrus fruits jumping from the glass. There is subtle hints of oak spice and toasty notes. The palate is lean and precise with plenty of fruit and well integrated oak complexity.

Description

The Margaret River region is famous for two things: it’s dramatic coastline and boutique vineyards. Wise Wine, nestled in the hills overlooking Eagle Bay, is the only winery in the region to combine both. While tasting our award winning wines at our Cellar Door or adjoining Wise Vineyard Restaurant, you can drink in the views of our vineyard, the surrounding old-growth forests and the pristine ocean of Geographe Bay beyond.

However we’re not all beauty and no brains. James Halliday writes Wise is an “Outstanding winery capable of producing wines of the highest calibre” rating Wise Wine with 5 stars for three consecutive years.
Wise Wines was established in 1991 by biochemist Dr Ron Wise.

Our flagship range, Eagle Bay Wines, is an expression of our magic vineyard and is made from estate grown fruit. For our other ranges, our winemakers select fruit from WA’s premier cool climate viticulture regions. This freedom allows them to match the best grower for a particular varietal.
