Tasting Notes
Aroma
This is our first Primary Chardonnay and we are excited. Lifted pink grapefruit, wet stone minerality, curry leaf, lime brulee the aromas keep developing on opening and warming in the glass.
Palate
The palate shows focus and drive from the citrus/melon fruit, yet it is layered with creamy barrel ferment texture, subtle smoky oak notes and a crystalline purity on the finish.
Vinification
After chilling in a cold room overnight we press the whole bunches of chardonnay direct to barrel: no clarifying, no acid added, no added yeast. The wild ferment starts in 500L pun cheons which are new (25%), 1yo (50%) and 2yo (25%). After 10 months on fermentation lees (without sulphur dioxide) the wine is assembled (with a small sulphur addition) and was bottled in January 2023.
Vintage Notes
The 2022 vintage started with a cool dry winter followed by a wet spring which slowed down the growth and berry develop ment. Summer was dry, benign and a hot spell during January led to picking in February. The Primary was handpicked by our own Yarri team due to a lack of pickers in Margaret River for the 2022 vintage. And didnt they love it.
