Yarra Valley Chardonnay

Medhurst Yarra Valley Chardonnay is made from hand selected parcels of fruit from premium Yarra Valley sites, including their estate vineyard at Gruyere.

The fruit is whole bunch pressed and its juice is fermented with indigenous yeasts in French oak. If necessary, a portion of the blend undergoes malolactic fermentation to soften the wine's natural acidity and add complexity.

After five months maturing in oak, the wine is blended to tank with full solids. It is then bottled with minimal filtration.

Bright straw green, Medhurst Yarra Valley Chardonnay is a lively, fresh wine, its pure fruit flavours highlighted by a background of oak. Cellaring potential is five years.
