Chardonnay / / WesternAustralia
Chardonnay grown to the cooler nethers of southwest Australia can stand alone, unwooded and unoaked, showing lifted aromas of pineapple and melon, nectarines and peach. Vines are stimulated by the unique maritime influence of the coastal regions into yielding grapes which express the hallmark characters that we know and love about west coast Chardonnay. Debut makes the grade, not least for it's vitality and freshness in a vivacious fruit driven styling, but also for its generosity of flavour, contemporary styling and exquisite balance.

Chardonnay / Pemberton / WesternAustralia
Bellarmine jugs were used throughout the middle ages to carry wine from oak cask to table. The Bellarmine property at Pemberton was planted entirely by hand, vines were trained from ground up, to expose the ripening grapes to optimal sunshine. The terroirs and clime here are a Chardonnay maker's dream come true. Soils are red gravel laterite, offering excellent drainage while providing warmth to the vine root systems at night, courtesy of heat that the gravels have absorbed during the day. A lightly oaked wine, highly evocative of the dry and fruity Chablis style.
