Brooks Chardonnay takes its name from our Chapman Brook Vineyard, established in 1994 in the cool southern half of Margaret River, the main source of our Chardonnay. The cooler climate captures the freshness and vibrancy of the variety, and when combined with a subtle oak influence and juicy natural acidity, produces an appealing fruit-driven style with great richness and balance.

This wine bursts forth with ripe pineapple, golden delicious apple, and lime zest characters, with enticing hints of lemon curd tart, sweet cream, vanilla pod, and a touch of cedar smoke. Lingering floral notes of jasmine and citrus blossom intermingle with toasted almond, cashew, and hints of yellow peach to charm.

The bright minerally yet rich palate is fine and focused with delicious vanilla custard creaminess and poached apple overlaying green melon and juicy cucumber freshness. The fresh finish is long, displaying toasted hazelnut and a vibrant lemon juiciness expressing the mineral core of this viscous yet flinty chardonnay. The oatmeal biscuit and cinnamon notes from the oak are well integrated and complex.

The juicy accessibility of this wine lends itself to a wide array of food pairings; some favorites include Meyer lemon and asparagus risotto, fresh scallop sashimi drizzled with chili-infused lime oil, kingfish carpaccio with pickled green mango or a simple cheese board with aged cheddar, comté and brie served with quince paste and dry roasted almonds.
