'We have planted Clone 1, Clone 5 and the shy bearing but full flavoured Gingin (Mendoza) Clone.
Chardonnay is the first variety harvested, in mid March.
We believe that the best Australian Chardonnay does not need the augmentation of oak. Our climate and our fruit is different to that of France's Burgundy, and we don't need to imitate that style of wine.
Our aim is to showcase the abundant fruit flavours we can achieve with meticulous viticulture and low yields.'
