Chardonnay 2025

Experience the pure essence of the chardonnay grape variety with Lawson’s Dry Hills Chardonnay 2025. This wine has minimal oak influence allowing the fruit characters to really shine. Lemon blossom, red apple and white peach produce attractive aromas while the palate shows white peach and subtle brioche flavours. It is well-balanced with a gentle acidity offsetting the ripe fruit flavours and lovely creamy texture. This is a deliciously pure expression of Chardonnay, ready to be enjoyed as a glass on its own or with a variety of subtle dishes.

Vineyards and viticulture

This single vineyard wine comes from our Chaytors Road vineyard and is 60% old vine Mendoza clone and 40% the Burgundy clone 548. These are naturally low-cropping and together with this site, produce lovely wines with intensity, freshness and texture.

Winemaking

The grapes were picked in ideal condition and gently pressed to stainless steel tanks for a slow, gentle fermentation with wild yeast (from the skins of the grapes). After this primary fermentation, the wine naturally underwent malolactic fermentation, where the sharp malic acid is exchanged for the soft lactic acid. This brings the overall acidity down and gives a richer texture and creamy note to the wine. It was then transferred to old French oak barrels and puncheons for two months before being bottled at the winery.

Food Pairing

Easy to enjoy a glass on its own, or to accompany seafood, creamy risottos and pasta dishes, fresh salmon, soft white cheeses and chicken.
