Region: Yarra Valley 

Variety: Chardonnay 

What's in the glass: “The granite soils of the Denton vineyard are most evident in the Chardonnay wines,” says Luke, and we’ve certainly experienced that extra mineral depth in the Lambert Crudo and Estate Chardonnays since he moved his sourcing here. The new release is full of ripe citrus, stone fruits, talc and flint, with weighty mouthfeel cinched by zippy, balanced acidity and a citrus, mineral-rich close. Yarra Chardonnay at this quality, interest and price point is a rare bird.  

Farming: Sustainable 

Vegan Friendly: Yes
