The Kooyong Single Block Farrago Chardonnay 2020 is made from around 0.7 hectares of mature vines in the Farrago block at Kooyong's Tuerong vineyard on the Mornington Peninsula. The block's clay soils carry a high content of ironstone pebbles, lending a distinctly mineral, linear profile to the wines grown there.
The cool 2020 season produced a particularly taut and restrained expression, closer in spirit to Chablis than to richer styles of Chardonnay. The fruit was whole-bunch pressed into French oak, about 20% new, fermented with wild yeasts and left on lees for close to a year before bottling.
The nose offers grapefruit, lemon pith and stone fruit with a mineral, wet slate note and a light nutty touch from the oak. On the palate it is elegant and intense, with focused citrus fruit, fine acidity and a long, clean finish. With six years in bottle it is showing added complexity while retaining its freshness.
