Old Hill Chardonnay 2017

$200.00 – $360.00

Tasting Notes

Our 2017 Old Hill Chardonnay reveals aromas of toasty brioche, spicy oak and lemon zest. Both structured and textural the palate provides an excellent mouthfeel and length.

Vinification

The Old Hill block chardonnay grapes were fermented in French oak barriques using wild yeast and left to mature on lees for 12 months.

Winemaker: Scott McCarthy

2017 Vintage

Vintage 2017 was pleasant, with a mild summer that started to heat up towards the end of the growing season. The Old Hill block was picked on the 5th of March, later than previous harvests.

Halliday Rating - 91 points

"Fermented and matured in French barriques for 12 months. Has greater weight and complexity than its vintage sibling, reflected in its higher alcohol, longer time in barrel and deeper, though bright, colour. This has not come as a problem vis a vis elegance and mouthfeel."

- James Halliday, 01 August 2019
