WHY WE LOVE THIS WINE
2020 JAMES HALLIDAY WINE COMPANION - 96 POINTS
Wombat Creek is the highest significant vineyard in the Upper Yarra, and is Handpicked's favourite when it comes to chardonnay. Fermentation takes place in French barriques. It has fabulous mouthfeel and crunchy white peach flavour throughout, the generous use of French oak standing aloof from the other Handpicked wines. Its length and tenacity are exceptional.

TASTING NOTES
Planted on dramatic slopes at high elevation in the Upper Yarra Valley, Wombat Creek Vineyard has cool, extended seasons that are ideally suited to Chardonnay and produce wines of great elegance, clarity and length.
