Bindi
Quartz Macedon Ranges Chardonnay
Macedon Ranges, Port Phillip, Victoria, Australia
At my 2015 Chardonnay Challenge the Bindi Quartz was the consensus winner from 6 Chardonnays. Ripe grapefruit and mineral - very balanced. Finishes with a touch of moreish salinity. Quite an achievement to finish No. 1 in this field.

Sep 8th, 2024Pale to mid lemon with a steely edge in colour. Citrus, grapefruit and under ripe stone fruit on the palate with a hint of nougat. All the minerality you would expect from this Quartz strewn vineyard. An excellent well made Chardonnay from this unique site - finishing with a touch of salinity. Certainly in the conversation discussing Australia’s top Chardonnays.
