2024 Eldorado Road Beechworth Chardonnay
A rich, creamy textured Chardonnay that takes on an opulent feel across the long finish.
This is Eldorado Road’s first release of Chardonnay from this Beechworth single site vineyard. 2024 was a growing season that delivered a fuller, richer expression of Chardonnay. The fruit was all hand-picked and chilled overnight with 100% barrel fermentation, part wild and the balance inoculated. It was then matured on matured on lees for 10 months.
Brilliant pale straw core with green straw tinged edges and a watery hue. Filling the olfactory senses are aromas of peach, honeycomb and crème brulee followed by some nougat, subtle bacon fat and spice. Rich and creamy textured, the palate features fleshy peach, crème brulee and honeycomb flavours over butterscotch, delicate cashew and spicy nougat elements. The long, mouth filling finish taking on an opulent feel.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.
