2023 Shadowfax Midhill Chardonnay

The 2023 Shadowfax Midhill Chardonnay is a striking single-vineyard Macedon Ranges Chardonnay that showcases the intensity, minerality and finesse of one of Australia’s premier cool-climate regions. The nose is highly aromatic and complex, revealing lemon zest, grapefruit and white florals layered with flinty minerality, toasted nuts, brioche and subtle lees complexity.

On the palate, it is tightly focused yet beautifully textured, with vibrant citrus and stone fruit flavours supported by saline tension, creamy wild ferment characters and finely integrated French oak. Bright, sherbet-like acidity drives the wine through a long, precise and evolving finish. The style is modern and sophisticated, combining energy, texture and elegance with exceptional ageing potential.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding Chardonnay for customers who enjoy premium cool-climate styles with mineral precision, savoury complexity and Burgundian finesse. Perfect with lobster, scallops, roast chicken, creamy seafood pasta or fine dining occasions. Drink now with decanting or cellar over the next 8–10 years for added depth and complexity.
