Kooyong
Faultline Chardonnay
Mornington Peninsula, Port Phillip, Victoria, Australia
Aging gracefully for a cool climate Aussie Chard. I’ve not had the pleasure to taste any younger vintages but this proves they have some caliber.

Not finding any fault. Nose is all stone & lots of acid. Texture on the palate just says new world.

Dec 2nd, 2012Inspired by Roulot? It shows poise and tension, almost salty on the palate. An incredible backbone of racy, laser-sharp acidity packed with smoky, flinty (reductive) minerality, gives this wine an unique dimension that very few New World wines possess. Another exciting example of Aussie cooler climate! @kooyongwines

11 years old and still shows lively bright fruits and a backbone of minerality and clean acidity. First class.

Jul 20th, 2016Aged release. Acid is still dominating but there is much more length. Very full in body but oak (10% new) is just evident.

Oct 14th, 2015Great acid. Long time on lees without stirring. Texture but light in weight. Whole bunch and natural yeast but some sulfur.
