Wickhams Road, Chardonnay, Gippsland, 2021
"From the Woori Yallock in the Upper Yarra Valley. It siddles up to you, and only on the 2nd taste that it's sheer intensity and class drops its guard. The price of the wine should be doubled, to reflect the perfect rendition of the varietal array of pink grapefruit and bllod orange. There's great mouthfeel and precise balance."Gold, 96/100 James Halliday, Wine Companion,16th May 2022
From vines in Woori Yallock and Macclesfield vineyards. Aromas of white flowers...

Chardonnay
Chardonnay is one of the most-widely planted varieties in the world.
Arguably not the most characterful grape, hence its common ageing in oak, yet at its pinnacle in Burgundy it produces some of the greatest (and certainly most expensive) white wines in the world. Look out for unoaked Chardonnay, it can make a pleasant change, and usually goes down very well with all those people who...

Hoddles Creek, Chardonnay, Yarra Valley, 2020
Strong dairy element on the nose. Mid weight, showing a perfect equilibrium between creamy richness and the bite of ripe lime and tangerine. Poised, very complete and long; altogether a winner, borne out by the accolade below. Now-2025
“Seven clones; barrel-fermented (25% new oak) part wild, part cultured yeast; 9 months in oak, the impact subtle on a palate with both finesse and intensity. Grapefruit and Granny Smith apple are the flavour drivers of the long palate, crisp acidity...

Hoddles Creek, Syberia Chardonnay, Yarra Valley, 2019
This is one of the estate’s two top Chardonnays, a barrel selection from a single vineyard, a high, cool (hence the name) site in cleared forest in the Upper Yarra. From Franco’s website: “Located on our steepest, highest block at Hoddles Creek. Syberia is always quite different to the standard Hoddles Creek Chardonnay. The row orientation is East-West so it doesn't see a lot of direct sunlight on bunches. The wine is whole bunch pressed straight to cask, no fining and zero...
