Voyager Estate Coastal Chardonnay 750ml
Voyager Estate Coastal Chardonnay 750ml
The Voyager Estate Chardonnay vineyards are planted in the Stevens Valley area which is located toward the coast, close to the township of Margaret River. The area is characterised by gentle slopes of red/brown gravelly top soils, about one metre deep, with a stony/clay subsoil. Located in close proximity to the Indian Ocean with its cooling sea breezes, nature provides the perfect microclimate for the development of exceptional Chardonnay grapes. The small vineyard blocks and subtle nuances offered by the use of different clones, form the basis of a wine which displays purity, freshness and balance. Typically the fruit is harvested with a strong citrus element forming the core of the wine, with subtle hints of yellow and green tropical fruits shining through. The resultant wine is medium bodied with lovely texture, fresh vibrant fruit flavours and clean fresh saline acidity.
This blend is made from estate fruit only, predominantly the Gingin clone. Parcels of fruit were pressed and settled overnight prior to fermentation in French oak puncheons. Subsequent bâtonnage and maturation over seven months added further complexity and texture. Parcels were blended before bottling in November 2022.
