2014 Squitchy Lane Vineyard Chardonnay

Brilliant pale straw colour with greenish tinged edges and a watery hue. A well scented nose of white peaches and ripe nectarines laced with distinct dried honey notes is followed by cashew, citrusy nougat and spice. Mouthfilling flavours of white peaches and nectarines mingle with dried honey, cashew, gun flint and citrusy nougat. Creamy mid palate textural feel finishing with freshness and elegance showing excellent persistence. Long aftertaste of white peaches, nectarines, dried honey, gun flint infusions, cashew and citrusy nougat.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.
Alc 13.5%

Other Reviews….
P58 and I10V1 clones, hand-picked, wild-fermented in French oak (30% new), matured for 11 months. Shows the great Yarra Valley ‘14 chardonnay vintage isn’t losing its form. This is all about restraint and elegance. Drink by 2022.
