Chandon Australia Vintage Blanc de Blancs Region:Yarra Valley Bright fruit-focused Merlot

Bright fruit-focused Merlot

On the nose

with lingering bitter chocolate overtones

Beautifully soft yet full-bodied it shows pristine varietal character and impeccable balance and is simply a pleasure to drink - whether it be upon its release when it shows optimum primary fruit and robust texture or after a few years in the cellar when the classic secondary characters begin to wonderfully take control

From some extremely old vines (100+ years old) which found a new home at Langmeil

Chandon Australia Vintage Blanc de Blancs Region:Yarra Valley Bright fruit-focused MerlotLargely estate grown fruit; 71% from Whitlands, 20% from Strathbogie, and 9% from the Upper Yarra. A traditional method that spent 42 months on lees, disgorged Mar 20. Has developed superbly since first tasted in September 20, filling out a little, yet with cool grown chardonnay; fresh grapefruit nuances; clean finish; good dosage.
