The 2024 Pepper Tree Chardonnay is a fresh and beautifully balanced Australian Chardonnay crafted from cool-climate estate vineyards across premium growing regions including Orange and the Limestone Coast. Produced in a modern fruit-driven style, the wine focuses on purity, texture and vibrant acidity while using restrained oak influence to preserve freshness and drinkability. Pepper Tree Wines has built a strong reputation for polished regional wines, and the excellent 2024 vintage delivered bright stone fruit character alongside refined structure and balance.
The nose reveals peach, nectarine and white flowers layered with citrus zest and subtle brown spice notes. On the palate, it is fresh yet gently creamy with vibrant acidity and a crisp mineral edge that keeps the wine energetic and focused. Layers of stone fruit, lemon curd and delicate oak spice unfold with balance and finesse, finishing long, clean and beautifully refreshing with a refined acid line and modern Australian Chardonnay character.
Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2024 Pepper Tree Chardonnay is a polished and highly approachable Chardonnay — fresh, textural and packed with bright cool-climate fruit character. Perfect with roast chicken, grilled seafood, creamy pasta, crumbed fish or soft cheeses. Enjoy now for its youthful vibrancy or over the next 4–6 years.
