Tasting Notes
Smiths Lane Mornington Peninsula Chardonnay opens with an inviting bouquet of white peach, fresh nectarine, and zesty grapefruit, underpinned by a subtle thread of toasted oak and creamy lees. On the palate, this cool-climate expression is beautifully poised, delivering vibrant stone fruit alongside a saline, mineral tension that is characteristic of the Mornington Peninsula. Gentle cashew and vanilla notes from restrained oak integration add texture and complexity without overwhelming the fruit. The wine shows excellent balance between its natural acidity and a silky, mid-palate richness, reflecting careful winemaking with partial barrel fermentation and sur lie aging.
