Mandala The Compass Chardonnay 2023

This is a most impressive Chardonnay from the Dixon’s Creek Vineyard in the Yarra. A combination of two clones has been used with each treated separately initially. It combines a pristine purity with a little more weight, creating a wine in perfect harmony. The nose has some nice grapefruit and sea spray characters while the palate delivers with a fine and spritely mix of light stone fruit, citrus and brioche. A subtle creaminess is balanced by the fine minerality.
