2023 'Damside' Chardonnay
Clare Valley Chardonnay is becoming somewhat of a rarity, but this release of 'Damside' from a cooler vintage, shows that great wines of balance and poise can be made, with 2023 proving to be a high quality vintage.
Pressed into old French barriques using native yeast for fermentation, we choose to limit malo-lactic fermentation in preference of freshness and vibrancy.

Good winter rain allowed soil profiles to be full, giving the vines a great start to the growing season. Remarkably cool summer followed, providing perfect conditions for healthy vines to produce fruit with high natural acidity and concentrated flavours. One of the better vintages of the last decade.
