Levantine Hill Optume Chardonnay 2020 ( 3 x 750ml )
The 2020 vintage provided an ideal inaugural opportunity for us to present
an overall expression of Chardonnay provided from multiple sub-regions of
the Yarra Valley. Grapes were sourced from seven select vineyard sites from
locations across the central valley floor rising up to the higher, cooler
laterripening upper Yarra to the south. The intention of this breadth of
scope is to create an exceptional and complete wine of regional typicity,
combining the individual site-specific strengths and expressions to deliver
the optimum expression of our regions' enviable reputation with this
variety. Showing volume and weight with finesse and restraint, this
intense, slowbuilding, enticingly fuller -bodied Chardonnay is the result
of an assemblage of seven vineyard sites. It leads with an aromatic
intensity of pear, fig, caraway seed, dates, crème anglaise and char
with an undercarriage of flint and chalk. The complex, plush and textural
palate delivers richness with focus and precision. Befitting a regionally
representative wine of this ilk, the intensity of presence, flavour and
subtle power resound with length and persistence. As a young wine,
decanting is recommended.
