Description
A quintessential Yarra Valley Chardonnay, crafted in the signature Timo Mayer style—pure, precise, and unembellished.
This wine is fermented and aged for six months in old hogsheads before being transferred to stainless steel, prioritizing freshness and clarity. With no malolactic fermentation or lees stirring, it showcases pristine citrus flavors, a delicate mineral backbone, and a subtle texture from its time in barrel.
The 2024 vintage introduces a touch more richness in the mid-palate, yet the wine retains its sharp, focused character. Vibrant notes of grapefruit, lemon zest, and a salty edge keep it fresh and dynamic.
It’s streamlined, exacting, and made to mature—though resisting the first bottle will certainly be a challenge.
