Pretty exciting Yarra chardonnay; standard bottling; 13%, screwcap tells you the right story after 10 years; and no oxidation; lack of over-ripeness which eliminates the rockmelon bits which destroy a classic chardonnay: nice smoke and mix of grilled nuts and herbs; palate drying, no oak obvious but crisp and underdone; great

Awesome, restrained alcohol, judicious use of French oak. Just the right amount of minerality.

Straddles the old school vs cool kids modern Chardonnay style. Plenty of richness and ripe stone fruit with tight acid line. A few years in bottle has done it no harm. Great w chicken risotto.
