Dalwhinnie Mesa Chardonnay 2021

The 2021 vintage in Victoria's Pyrenees region was exceptional, marked by well-timed rainfall and moderate temperatures, resulting in higher yields and superb natural acidity for Chardonnay. Fruit was meticulously handpicked and pressed directly to barrel for wild fermentation, without any additives. After six months of maturation in barrel, the most expressive barrels were selected for the final blend. This Chardonnay exhibits a light straw hue with golden highlights and offers aromas of orange blossom and ripe stone fruits on the nose. The palate is beautifully balanced, featuring juicy nectarine, lime, subtle oak spice, and a fine natural acidity.
