Provenance Wines is a celebrated Geelong producer and Halliday Wine Companion 5-star winery, crafting elegant, terroir-driven wines from vineyards in the Moorabool and Barwon valleys north of Geelong. Their Chardonnay is whole-bunch pressed and fermented with indigenous yeast in French oak barriques at cool temperatures, then matured on lees for eight months to build texture and complexity.
On the nose, expect aromas of ripe stone fruit, toasted cashew and subtle vanillin oak. The palate delivers generous flavours of grapefruit and grilled peach alongside pure pear and cedar, laced with creamy nuttiness and a distinctive flint-like minerality. The cool Geelong climate ensures vibrant natural acidity, giving the wine great finesse and a long, structured finish.
A rich yet refined Chardonnay that pairs beautifully with roast chicken, creamy pasta or a seafood platter.
