Wickhams Road Yea Valley Chardonnay 2025

Wickhams Road Yea Valley Chardonnay is a barrel-fermented Chardonnay from a high, cool site at Yea.

The Hoddles Creek team works closely with the growers behind this fruit, and the site itself sits north of the Yarra Valley at Yea, higher, cooler and drier than the home vineyard. Picking runs about three weeks later as a consequence, which is where the racy edge in this wine comes from. It is made exactly as the estate range is made, fermented in old barrels with nothing added for effect, and of the three Chardonnays in this range it is the freshest and brightest by a clear margin.

Lemon, green apple and a chalky mineral streak, lean through the middle with a mouthwatering, dry close. Serve it properly cold, around 10 degrees. Oysters, grilled whiting, sushi or a plate of goat's curd and bread.
