    • Description

      Fruit for this wine was selected from Windowries original planting of Chardonnay. The block was planted in 1988.

      Aromas of white peach, white flower and grilled almonds are complimented well with seasoned oak spice and minerality. The palate is textural and refreshing, with underlying white peach flavours find their way to prominence in between oak and yeast complexities. This wine is exemplary of Cowra Chardonnay’s white peach intensity; to be enjoyed at any time.

    Windowrie

    In 1959, David and Wizz O'Dea purchased the Windowrie land in Cowra, New South Wales with the intention to produce cereal crops. And so they did, until their decision in 1980 to diversify by planting vines on their estate. From those vines, Windowrie Estate produced its first vintage and can call itself the region's first winery. David and Wizz have four children and two have remained at the family winery to fuel their passion for wine. Jason O'Dea completed Viticulture at Charles Sturt University in 1994 and proceeded to travel for 18 months on a global vineyard discovery tour, studying in Europe and North and South Americas. On his return home, Jason managed the family vineyards in addition to making wine, while his sister Petrina (Nook) O'Dea works in marketing for the winery, helping to spread the word about this incredible wine region. From Chardonnay to Verdelho, Merlot to Tempranillo, James Halliday calls Windowrie Estate wines "a major, and pleasant surprise".
