The pinnacle of Yarra Valley excellence, showcasing meticulous winemaking techniques, with barrel fermentation and extended lees aging. Aromas of citrus and white flowers lead to a palate of creamy complexity. White peach and nectarine fruit characters are enhanced by hints of butterscotch and fine oak with a distinctly creamy finish that rounds off the wine to perfection, adding impressive mouth weight and length to the wine. Crafted at the esteemed Helens Hill winery, this Chardonnay encapsulates their commitment to quality.
