The Poppet Head Chardonnay 2008 

Many vineyards supplying our winery are in areas that were a focus of the gold rush of the mid to late 19th century and thus the inspiration for the name ‘Poppet Head’.  The poppet head was a tower-like lifting structure built over the top of a mine shaft, enabling miners to get the quartz and rock out of the mine to the surface.

Poppet Head Chardonnay is predominantly sourced from premium Victorian wine regions including: Macedon Ranges, Yarra Valley and The Strathbogie Ranges.

Packed with juicy melon flavours this premium fruit was left to mature in new French oak for twelve months.  The structure of the wine - acidity, flavour and oak - all in balance, indicates that this wine will cellar well.

Match with, well, just about anything!  This Chardonnay is a great all-rounder, try it as an aperitif, with a creamy pasta, or fish.
