Halliday Wine Companion 2021 has awarded 2018 Breachley Block Single Vineyard Yarra Valley Chardonnay 95 gold points!
"Hand-picked, whole-bunch pressed, wild-fermented and matured in French puncheons (30% new) for 9 months. Intense and powerful, with layers of white peach, cashew and pink grapefruit filling the mouth. Has immaculate balance, and all the length expected of a high class Yarra Valley chardonnay. Development is assured."
The Breachley Block of vines sits perched above the home of co-owners Andrew and Robyn McIntosh. Planted in 1983, these vines provide an aged character to the fruit that simply cannot be replicated within younger vines.
