Levantine Hill Levant Chardonnay 2024 750ml
Levantine Hill Levant Chardonnay 2024 is an elegant cool-climate Chardonnay from the Yarra Valley in Victoria, Australia. Crafted from 100% Chardonnay, the wine showcases the freshness, mineral character and layered complexity associated with the region.
The grapes were whole-bunch pressed before the juice was settled overnight and transferred to foudres and smaller-format barrels for fermentation. The wine was aged on settled lees with minimal stirring, while selected barrels underwent full malolactic fermentation to enhance richness and complexity.
