Cookoothama Chardonnay
Our Chardonnay is sourced from premium vineyards in the Riverina located in regional New South Wales.
The fruit was harvested in the cool of the night and delivered to our winery for membrane pressing. Full solids were retained for fermentation, which was initiated in stainless steel tanks and seasoned barrels with non-saccharomyces yeast to develop additional complexity. Post fermentation, the parcel received monthly batonnage and aged sur lie for sixteen months to enhance mouth feel and texture, ahead of racking, blending and bottling.
Winemakers Comments
Pale straw in appearance with a youthful green hue, the wine displays lifted aromas of nectarine, peach and allspice that lead to a nuanced palate of stone fruit, brioche and a crisp, bright acidity.
Wine & Food Match
This is a great food wine that is versatile enough to complement a broad range of seafood and poultry dishes.
Cookoothama Chardonnay
The Cookoothama Chardonnay is pale straw in colour with youthful green hues. Lifted aromas of citrus, nectarine and peach with mixed spice. On the palate, rich full flavoured stone fruits are complimented by cleansing acids giving structure and finesse with savoury biscuit nuances leading to a crisp, dry finish.
