About this wine

OAKRIDGE WINES Local Vineyard Series Henk Vineyard Chardonnay, Yarra Valley

Freshly zested limes give way to a buzzing energy of flint, white flowers and spices, complemented by intense grapefruit, blood orange and other exotic fruits.

This wine was sourced from the north facing Henk Vineyard, sited in the red volcanic soils of Woori Yallock.

A traditional winemaking approach was used to produce this wine: handpicking and whole bunch pressing directly into 500 litre French oak puncheons for a natural fermentation followed by 14 months maturing on lees.

Sight
Pale straw, vivid light-yellow hue.
Nose
Aromas of freshly zested limes give way to a buzzing energy of flint, white flowers and spices. Intense grapefruit, blood orange and other exotic fruits are also present on the nose, together with suggestions of honeysuckle and mint fudge, all in perfect balance.
Palate
On the palate, an explosion of energetic white and yellow fruits opens the tasting experience. Grapefruit flavours are carried along a glass-like rod of tension, complemented by citrus pith and white peach, all packaged up in a nervy ball of energy. The future is strong for this chardonnay.

ABOUT THE WINERY
Oakridge Estate

Oakridge Estate, founded in 1978, has had a longstanding reputation for quality. It has been blessed with a succession of talented winemakers. The winery, located at 864 Maroondah Highway at Coldstream in the Yarra Valley, is led by esteemed veteran winemaker Dave Bicknell. It is under his watch that Oakridge has blossomed and excelled. The fruit is sourced from both owned and independent grower vineyards. David and his team are renowned for producing exceptional single vineyard wines made with minimal intervention, and in using innovative and sustainable practices in winemaking and viticulture. The wines are beautifully made and illustrate the idea that winemaker’s intuition and skill are completely intertwined with the idea of distinguished vineyard site. The Reserve style wines, labelled 864 and released in top vintages, are outstanding and comprise a Chardonnay, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon.
