This Katherines Paddock Chardonnay combines the richness, drive and classicism of one clone with the fine-boned flinty structure and chalky notes of the other. It is stylish with the modern expression of Australian style Chardonnay: tense, taut and sulphidic. It reclaims the middle ground where body, flavour and palate weight co-exist with structure, texture and restrained acidity. This single-vineyard Chardonnay has well integrated natural acidity with rich varietal expression.

The house of Besserat de Bellefon was founded in 1843 near Ay in Champagne, and is now based in Epernay. The hallmark of the house is the lower than normal pressure that the wine is kept at under cork. This lower than normal pressure does not reduce the effervescence, but softens it, allowing the wine to partner better with food. The Blanc de Blancs - delicate and subtle citrus displaying a pure form of elegance. Aspect: Vivid, yellow, pure, brilliant Bouquet: Airy, acacia blossom, sea brine Palate: Tense, chalky, chiselled, vital, precise Assemblage : Chardonnay

Product Information: In recent years, this wine has displayed even greater definition and class. With organic viticulture, new equipment, and nearly 20 years of expertise, Fabien Moreau is producing exceptional wines, and the 2023 1er Cru Chablis is looking spectacular. The Vaillon stands out above the village-level crus, with elevated floral notes, energetic citrus, and beeswax emerging with aeration. The palate is nicely balanced, opening with a touch of honey, vivid fruit, and a racy acidity that lingers on the finish. The Vaillon appellation is located on the left bank of Chablis. Domaine Christian Moreau has six parcels totaling 4.7 hectares in the historical heart of Vaillons. The fruit is sourced from vines that are 30 to 70+ years old, all south/south-east-facing. The soil here is from the Kimmeridgian period, rich in clay-limestone marls with marine fossils, specifically small oyster fossils known as Exogyra Virgula. The fruit is hand-harvested, fermented with natural yeast, and aged for 6-8 months—two-thirds in tank and one-third in barrique. Two wines are produced from those vines: our Premier Cru Vaillon, blending of five different parcels which average age is from 37 to 74 years old – and our Premier Cru Vaillon, Cuvée Guy Moreau issued from a parcel of 1 ha where the vines were planted in 1933 by Guy Moreau, Christian’s father. This is the oldest vine of the Domaine. Maker: Domaine Christian Moreau is a historic name in Chablis. Led by Christian Moreau and his son Fabien, the estate has upheld its family legacy while producing some of the region’s finest wines. Their exceptional vineyard holdings include nearly 8 hectares of Grand Cru out of Chablis' total 92 hectares, making this small but remarkable estate one of the leading producers of Chablis. While their holdings in Petit, village, and 1er Cru Chablis are impressive, their range of Grand Cru vineyards truly shines. Their notable parcels include approximately 3 hectares in Les Clos, 0.41 hectares in Clos des Hospices dans Les Clos, and smaller holdings in Valmur, Blanchots, and Vaudésir. Consistently producing classic Chablis wines, Christian Moreau is a must-try producer for any Chablis lover. Philosophy: These exceptional vineyard sites, combined with old vines, meticulous winemaking and careful attention to every step of production, have resulted in wines that are widely regarded as some of the finest in Chablis. In the vineyard, they employ ploughing, organic fertilisers, and have maintained a pesticide-free environment since 2004, alongside daily care to prevent disease. Since 2005, they have transitioned to organic agriculture across the vineyard, achieving Ecocert certification with the 2013 vintage. This commitment to sustainability has further enhanced the expression of their vineyards. Harvesting is done entirely by hand, with careful selection of grapes before pressing. Vinification relies solely on natural yeasts, with a balanced use of oak barrels and stainless steel tanks to highlight each wine's unique expression. They implement a comprehensive yield management strategy to enhance grape concentration and showcase the terroir. With investments in new tanks and other winemaking techniques, their cellar is equipped for separate vinification of each parcel accurately represent terroir. The results are evident in each vintage.

At Mount Mary they aim to make a Chardonnay of great length that is able to reach a balance between complexity & finesse. Unashamedly Burgundian in concept, local Yarra Valley practices are employed to fully express the unique terroir, including the wine not going through Malolactic fermentation as Mount Mary's cool-climate leaves the fruit with ideal acidity when picked. Matured in 20% new French barriques with the remainder in older barrels and large casks and along with grape solids, this is a Chardonnay of impressive texture and complexity.

Pale, straw colour with insinuations of green. Overt, ripe varietal fruit characters on the nose - pineapple, citrus and nectarine derived are from the warm vintage conditions. Mineral characters, orange blossom and almond meal along with some lees derived creaminess are all balanced within this multi-dimensional palate.

Gary Farr is still one of Victoria's true Chardonnay maestro's and his Chardonnay By Farr is another example. Taken from the original By Farr vineyard, this is a clearly a wine of true clarity and finesse. Flavours of melon and hints of spice with wonderful oak integration mean this wine is simply delicious upon release, but handle some careful medium-term cellaring.

Product Description A study in clarity and terroir, this Premier Cru Chablis reveals its roots with quiet precision. The 2023 Domaine Séguinot‑Bordet Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons is drawn from old vines on the right bank of the Serein River, where south and south-east exposures deliver both ripeness and minerality. Now under the care of Jean‑François Bordet, this historic family estate dates back to the 16th century and remains focused on pure, site-driven Chardonnay. Cool fermentation and a short period on lees have preserved the natural tension of the 2023 vintage. The result is a wine of poise and energy, where white citrus, crushed stone and saline lift meet a silken texture. A polished expression of Vaillons terroir, equally suited to freshly shucked oysters, grilled fish, or young cheeses. Tasting Notes NOSE – Airy and mineral Lemon rind, sea spray, wet stone and subtle florals with a hint of quinine. PALATE – Taut and layered Precise stone fruit and citrus interplay with a cool mineral core and fine texture. FINISH – Dry and linear Long, chiselled, and saline-driven with a refined austerity.
