Tasting Notes
Aroma
Lifted aromatics of lemon peel, guava, just-ripe nectarine, and thyme.
Appearance
Pale straw in colour.
Palate
The aromas carry
through to the palate, which has a saline, wet rock minerality
and preserved lemon at its core. A nougat, brioche-y
richness with some talc-like oak phenolics help carry the
wine to the finish and blends seamlessly with the wine’s
naturally vibrant acidity.
Vinification
Pressed to stainless steel for a quick settle before
transferring cloudy juice to French oak (10% new) for
fermentation and maturation. Malo-lactic fermentation was
discouraged. Assembled and bottled in December 2023.
Vintage Notes
The 2023 vintage was a cool and wet growing season in
the Yarra Valley, producing small crops of well-balanced
fruit. The season started two weeks later than usual
allowing the development of lovely fruit characters and
good concentration.
The 2023 In Dreams Chardonnay displays the classic Upper
Yarra Chardonnay characteristics of citrus, just ripe stone
fruit and a refreshing line of acid.
Region Notes
A selection of vineyards spanning the Yarra Valley but
focusing on the township of Yarra Junction in the Upper
Yarra Valley. Other vineyard sources are located in
Coldstream, St Andrews and Yarra Glen. Altitudes vary from
130m above sea level to 240m, and soil types include both
red volcanic loams and grey clay loams overlying mudstone.
