Description Lovely bright expression of old-vine Hunter Valley Chardonnay. Whole bunch pressed, taking only free run and light solids into concrete and large format French oak. Cirtus, cashews and creaminess from partial malolactic fermentation. Margan's white wines are some of the Hunter's best and their Chardonnay is right up there. " Scores for its precision and length... 93pts" (James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion).
The Hunter Valley is a region of New South Wales, Australia, extending from approximately 120 km (75 mi) to 310 km (193 mi) north of Sydney. The Hunter Valley is one of Australia’s best known wine regions, playing a pivotal role in the history of Australian wine and is one of the first wine regions planted all the way back in the early 19th century. Flanked by mountains to the west and north the Hunter Valley acts as a funnel, pulling cool ocean breezes into the area.
