Tyrrell's Belford Chardonnay 2021
The Belford vineyard, leased by the Tyrrell family, stands as their northernmost Chardonnay vineyard, planted in 1991. Situated farthest from the Brokenback range, its soil, akin to talcum powder in consistency, aids in producing distinct fruit. Handpicked and basket pressed before fermentation in stainless-steel tanks. Maturated in French oak barriques for eight months. Similar to Belford's Semillon, the Chardonnay exhibits a dense structure and rich fruit profile. French oak integration complements the wine's structure, balancing primary fruit characters with secondary textural elements, resulting in a vibrant, lengthy expression of modern Hunter Valley Chardonnay.
