Chardonnay
A complex bouquet with stone fruit aromas. Using quality French oak (10% new), a nicely textured wine persisting white stone fruit flavours – white peach & pear, with hints of citrus and lemon blossom. A medium-full bodied style with subtle and restrained oak.
| WINEMAKING | Handpicked grapes were gently whole bunch pressed to seasoned French oak barrels using free-run juice only. A high solid, 50% wild yeast ferment followed, giving the wine texture and complexity. The wine underwent partial Malo-lactic (approx.. 15%) fermentation with weekly batonage (stirring) for approximately 11 months before bottling. |

Australia ~ Adelaide Hills: Simon Tolley
As a fifth generation grape grower you develop intuitive knowledge of how quality fruit makes great wine. The result is a range of classic Adelaide Hills cool-climate wines that proudly carry the Simon Tolley stamp. Great wine is made in the vineyard – and fermented and bottled best where it's grown. Simon Tolley is a traditionalist and both these beliefs apply where he lives and works in the Adelaide Hills. Combine the soils, the rain and the sun – and blend green-thumbed expertise from years of vine-growing knowledge plus the wisdom of his forefathers – and great winemaking is bound to follow.
The Simon Tolley recipe is flavour-rich and balanced: distinctive, long-lived wines
