Wickhams Road Yarra Valley Chardonnay

The palate is juicy, bright, and beautifully balanced, opening with yellow peach, nectarine, and grapefruit zest lifted by the cool‑climate acidity of Yarra Junction. A mid‑palate of light honey, meal, and subtle cedar spice reflects both the vineyard’s ripeness and the restrained Hoddles Creek élevage. The texture is light‑ to mid‑weighted, with a clean line of citrus and a gentle matchstick flick that adds tension without austerity. The finish is fresh, mineral, and quietly persistent, tapering with grapefruit pith, stonefruit skin, and a whisper of spice.
