Very fine aromatics, fine oak presence too, sandalwoody and complex with lifted spice, faint slatey notes and then a whisp of white orchard fruits. Very focussed in the palate, seamless and tight with layers of quartz and steely minerality. Did I say focussed? Length to infinity. Wouldn't be many chardonnays in the country with this line, length and intensity. A little unyielding now, but boy, will this baby fly. Architectural and amazing fruit. Great wine.

A roughly equal blend of P58 and Mendoza clones, wild yeast-fermented, cloudy juice in French oak puncheons, 15% new. The wine has exceptional mouthfeel, drive and length, with white flesh peach on the mid-palate, and marked minerality on the finish and aftertaste. Yabby Lake''s Block 6 provides its flagship chardonnay, but also 30% of this wine.
