Yangarra McLaren Vale Chardonnay 2009

"Our Chardonnay is lively, fresh and vibrant, with loads of citrus and tropical fruits. There is no oak or malolactic fermentaion to adulterate and spoil pure fruit bliss. The lees stiring and wild yeast bring complexity and hints of a soft creamy finish. Peaches and cream anyone?" - Peter Fraser, winemaker.
The key to Yangarra's unique flavours is a large, smooth dune of Ngankipari Sand, a precisely-delineated Aeolian, or wind-blown geological formation that was laid down about a million years ago (which is very young in Australia's ancient geology). This sand is an extremely weathered remnant of mountain ranges that stood here 1.6 billion years ago, weathered away, and then rose again 500 million years ago. After a second weathering, the current ranges began to rise about 100 million years ago.
