Southern Light Vineyards Ghostgum Vineyard Chardonnay Main Ridge Mornington Peninsula 2024

Share

Sourced from two blocks in the Main Ridge sub-region of the Mornington Peninsula, the batches were kept separate. Whole bunch pressing to French oak, 30% new, with a wild yeast fermentation and no malolactic, the wine then spent a year on lees. Deep lemon in colour, this is concentrated, finely balanced and tight. Knife-edge stuff. The nose reveals notes of aromas of lemon, peaches, grapefruit and spices with a touch of cinnamonny oak. Juicy acidity adds to the freshness and energy. The wine has power, but it is well camouflaged. There is serious length here, a wine which will drink beautifully for ten years. Love it.
