Chardonnay lovers know the variety can age gracefully (providing the stars have been aligned to produce an excellent one) yet I often wonder, why bother when it tastes this good right now? In the mix, citrus and white stone fruit, funky sulphides and mouth-watering acidity, leesy texture and just enough oak spice to add a bit more deliciousness.

This wine represents the pinnacle of style and quality of Moorooduc Estate ‘McIntyre Vineyard’ chardonnay. A result of a stringent fruit selection from our oldest chardonnay vines this wine expresses the unique characters of this vineyard site.
Pale lemon gold in colour with a tightly wound nose of lemon rind, shortbread, salted licorice, white nectarine, jasmine and a hint of orange blossom. On the palate the complexity continues in a lovely combination of elegance and power.
