Wine Summary Image

Selective hand picking, gentle whole bunch pressing directly to barrel, wild or 'free range' yeast and lees stirring are all techniques aimed at producing a complex yet naturally balanced wine with a cellaring potential of up to 10 years.

'Lots happening in this excellent chardonnay. There’s a slightly funky aromatic at play here, then the palate features such beautiful textural qualities. It’s creamy, with butterscotch and grapefruit mealy characters delivering the perfect touch. Light flick of struck match adds further complexity on the finish.

Cellar: 10 years'

Winery Tasting Notes

A complex and alluring nose with smoky flinty aromas from the wild ferment plus lemon zest, jasmine, white stone fruit, ginger and freshly baked honey/oatmeal biscuits from the oak. While there is an element of restraint and poise, the palate has wonderful fleshy stone fruit texture and flavour along with citrus, pear, roasted almonds and nougat with smooth mouth watering acidity guiding the long finish.

No sub-region has been historically more important in the success of Margaret River than Wilyabrup, where the first vineyards were planted and wineries built and which continues to be home to a disproportionately large number of famous, usually small, vineyards.
