The 2024 TarraWarra Estate Southern Slope Vineyard Chardonnay is a refined single-vineyard wine from Victoria’s Yarra Valley, showcasing balance, texture, and cool-climate precision. Crafted in a modern style, it highlights both fruit purity and subtle winemaking complexity. The nose is lifted and expressive, revealing citrus, white peach, and nectarine, layered with hints of cashew, light oak, and a touch of flinty minerality.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a smooth, creamy texture balanced by bright acidity. Stone fruit and citrus flavors are complemented by a gentle savoury edge, leading to a long, polished, and elegant finish. The style combines freshness with depth, offering both immediate appeal and structure.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great option for customers looking for a Chardonnay with more texture while retaining freshness. Ideal for fans of modern, balanced Chardonnay styles. Enjoy now or cellar for 4–6 years. Perfect with roasted chicken, seafood, creamy dishes, or soft cheeses.
