Warramate Wines

2017 WARRAMATE YARRA VALLEY CHARDONNAY

RRP $30 / 2023

Clearly in the Warramate mould across its relaxed gait, unencumbered by excessive additions and winemaking; admirable in lieu of the fruit intensity conferred by a commitment to dry growing sans irrigation. Bravo! Melon, nectarine and judicious vanillin oak communicate across a creamy core of cashew and leesy detail. Nothing wrong with this as it brims with flavour and a glimpse of mineral-clad tension, without excess of any sort. NG 13% alc.

WINEMAKER Sarah Crowe What do you love most about chardonnay?

Chardonnay is my go-to wine because it is so versatile, diverse and satisfying. This wine is all about fruit purity with a gentle influence of oak underpinning it. It has bright citrus, a little mineral complexity and a crunchy apple finish.
