A wine that sings with Yarra Valleys confidence and cool climate expression. White peach, baked pineapple cake and lemon curd. Its zippy and zesty with acidity and a good dollop of vanilla spice undertones, the partial malo adds creamy oatmeal into the centre palate. Some ground ginger and white pepper to finish. This will uplift you and provide the robust round tones of full bodied Chardonnay at the same time. Go for something cheesy and toasty. Drink now or will cellar for 3 years further.
