Winemakers Comments
The grapes for our single vineyard chardonnay are sourced exclusively from our picturesque Gorge Block, located at the northern end of our Winery Vineyard. This elevated site benefits immensely from McLaren Vales cooler maritime climate where afternoon and evening sea breezes moderate the summer heat.
The 2010 Chapel Hill McLaren Vale Gorge Block Chardonnay displays lifted citrus and fig flavours complemented by subtle spicy and toasty oak. It is a wine of great finesse and poise which makes it a great companion of both delicately flavoured cuisines and of more textured dishes.
