One Road Chardonnay 2021

A blend of fruit sourced from Padthaway and Cowra – an interesting multi-state, multi-regional combination – that brings to the glass a mix of summer fruits framed by a steely acidity. The latter provides structure to a core of juicy citrus, lime zest, cooked apple and white peach. Hugely drinkable now but capable of some short-term ageing. One Road is usually a blend of Padthaway and Eden Valley Chardonnay but in 2021, Chardonnay was sought from one of Australia’s oldest vineyards for this variety in Cowra – a noted Chardonnay region – to contribute some cool climate heft. Hence, that focused, firm acid push.
