After both working in Burgundy now 17yrs ago, we have a real passion for Chardonnay and wanted to embark on making a single vineyard wine from the Adelaide Hills. After much negotiation, we were very lucky to be able to access some fruit from the Bowyer Ridge Vineyard.

Hand-picked fruit, whole bunch pressed, the free run only was drained and 100% fermented in French oak barrels (13% new oak), majority being larger 500L puncheons. Post ferment the wine was left on lees in barrel for partial malolactic fermentation while stirring regularly to build texture. 

The 2025 vintage shows white peach, fresh cream, green lemon and nougat, laced with a flinty reduction and grapefruit. Perfectly ripe fruit sits at the centre. A terrific phenolic line adds detail and drive, with the site’s natural acidity perfectly pitched to steer a deeply long and complex palate.
