Set beside the company's Indigo Vineyard Chardonnay from Beechworth, it is the finer and more restrained of the two. French oak adds a cashew-like richness that is balanced by grapefruit and ripe pear fruit and a thread of natural acidity. The 2019 is complex, yet it keeps a sense of lightness on the palate, and the winemakers see it as a wine for long-term ageing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you can resist opening it now, give it a few more years in a cool cellar.

The 2022 season brought lifted grapefruit and ripe white nectarine, framed by complementary French oak that lends a cashew note and a complex, layered palate without adding heaviness.
