In the glass this glistens pale golden with green flecks. Sourced from several blocks within Mitchelton's Nagambie property, this is a Chardonnay with a modern style core of light fruit, whilst oak derived complexity will no doubt develop over time in bottle. Complex aromas of nougat, roasted cashews and citrus blossom lead into a fine and delicate palate. A medley of stonefruits and preserved lemons are supported by chewy acidity and firm new oak.

From the Winery
Mitchelton Chardonnay is sourced from targeted sections across several blocks within the Mitchelton vineyard. Each parcel is harvested at optimum ripeness with gentle pressing employed to separate the pristine free run juice. Each batch is barrel fermented in a combination of new and seasoned French oak barriques with the inclusion of a small amount of solids to enhance textural properties.
