Domaine Chandon Yarra Valley Chardonnay 2009

|
Pale straw, with lustrous shades of green. The aroma expresses pristine varietal characters of white nectarine, ripe citrus and stone fruit as well as a subtle flavour profile of sweet, exotic spice. The palate is complex, structured and layered showing excellent balance between the expression of vibrant fruit and the secondary characters of roasted spices, soft cheese and toasty characters derived from fermentation, aging and lees stirring in French oak. Enjoy now or cellar for up to five years.
Fruit was sourced primarily from the cooler, elevated sites of the Upper Yarra Valley planted on red volcanic soils. Chardonnay vineyards located in the Upper Yarra Valley are renowned for producing grapes with citrus flavours and high natural acidity at moderate sugar levels. A few select parcels of fruit from the lower reaches of the Valley floor were also included in the final blend. These vineyards produce chardonnay with soft stone fruit characters. The ability to select excellent chardonnay fruit from a range of altitudes within the Yarra Valley has resulted in a wine of complexity as well as distinctive regionality.
