Fermented and matured for approximately 12 months in French oak (20% new), the 2018 vintage benefited from a long, cool growing season that produced exceptional fruit quality, natural acidity and refined structure. The result is a Chardonnay that combines generous fruit with impressive mineral freshness and Burgundian restraint. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"715\" data-end=\"1186\"\u003eThe nose is bright and expressive, revealing aromas of white nectarine, grapefruit and lemon zest layered with ripe citrus, white peach and subtle floral notes. As the wine opens, hints of nougat, dried honey and toasted hazelnut emerge, complemented by delicate gunflint, oatmeal and gentle French oak spice. The aromatic profile is vibrant and refined, balancing ripe stone fruit with cool-climate freshness and mineral complexity. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1188\" data-end=\"1840\"\u003eOn the palate, it is medium-bodied with a silky texture and lively natural acidity. Layers of nectarine, citrus and white peach are supported by subtle lees-derived creaminess, delicate biscuit-like oak and a distinctive flinty mineral backbone. The fruit is generous without becoming heavy, while the cool Alpine Valleys influence provides freshness and precision throughout. The finish is long, clean and refreshing, carrying lingering notes of citrus peel, stone fruit, light honey, toasted nuts and crushed stone. The style is modern and elegant, combining richness with restraint in true cool-climate fashion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eInfo\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"846\" style=\"height: 152px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAustralia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePRODUCER\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndigo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVARIETY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChardonnay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSTYLE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVINTAGE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2018\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSIZE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Wine More Cellars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39915351048387,"sku":"9341350000106","price":28.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/6779\/7699\/files\/2018_Indigo_Alpine_Valleys_Beechworth_Chardonnay.jpg?v=1782897060","url":"https:\/\/winemore.com.au\/products\/2018-indigo-alpine-valleys-beechworth-chardonnay","provider":"Wine More Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
