2024 Woori Yallock Chardonnay

$70.00

Located at Woori Yallock in the upper reaches of the Yarra Valley, the Lusatia Park vineyard sits on an excellent north-facing slope at an almost perfect altitude for this part of Victoria. The vineyard was planted in 1985 and is situated on the much desired red basalt soils that contribute to the extraordinary length the wines provide.

The fruit was hand harvested into 15kg baskets and transferred to the winery, then whole-cluster crushed into the press and drained off into tank for settling. Primary fermentation took place in barrique (30% new) over three weeks followed by complete malolactic fermentation. Lees stirring occurred twice towards the end of primary fermentation then once more at the completion of malolactic fermentation. The wine was then aged in barrique for eleven months.

Vibrant candied lime, makrut lime leaf, ripe apricot, fresh brioche and spice notes.

Crisp acidity and minerality with a hint of oak and a luxurious texture. A long, chalky finish balances power,
finesse and complexity.

"Orange blossom, white nectarine, and almost a lemony saline note that’s highly appealing, flinty and smoky, too. The palate is restrained, led by grapefruit and white nectarine flavours, mouth-watering acidity and oak spices with a layering of nutty lees adding more of a savoury component. Complex and detailed, utterly delicious." 95 points.
