Bindi Dhillon Glenhope Chardonnay 2023

Crafted from the esteemed Glenhope vineyard in Macedon Ranges, this wine represents our second endeavor with this nearly 30-year-old site. Situated at 450m elevation on granite soil, mirroring our Bindi Chardonnays, the grapes undergo a meticulous process. After destemming, the berries are pressed, and the juice flows directly into barrels, with around 30% new French oak. Fermentation occurs naturally, and the wine rests on lees for ten months before bottling. The 2023 vintage presents a captivating bouquet of lemon, citrus flowers, spice, fig, and a hint of nectarine. On the palate, it's full, fresh, harmonious, creamy, and lingering, boasting a delightful weight and ease. With aging potential of at least three years, it promises enjoyment for years to come.
