The 2024 Indigo Beechworth Chardonnay is a refined cool-climate Chardonnay from one of Victoria’s most respected white wine regions. Crafted in the Beechworth style known for precision and texture, the wine combines bright citrus and stone fruit character with subtle oak influence and fine mineral structure. Fermentation in French oak and extended lees contact add complexity while preserving freshness and regional definition.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with vibrant acidity and a layered, textural mouthfeel, delivering flavours of white peach, nectarine, grapefruit and lemon curd alongside delicate mealiness, almond and gentle toast notes. The finish is long, clean and mineral-driven, with balanced oak integration adding depth without overpowering the fruit.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Chardonnay for customers who enjoy elegant cool-climate styles with freshness, texture and subtle oak complexity. Beechworth continues to produce some of Australia’s finest Chardonnay, and this release shows both finesse and structure. Drinking beautifully now and capable of evolving further over the next 5–8 years. Ideal with roast chicken, grilled seafood, creamy pasta dishes or soft cheeses.
