Narkoojee Gippsland Lily Grace Chardonnay 2019
Narkoojee Gippsland Lily Grace Chardonnay 2019
Dozen Price: $359.88
RRP: $36.00
The Lily Grace Chardonnay fruit is from selected estate plantings and is named after Harry and Val Friend’s first grandchild, Lily Grace Friend. The 2019 vintage at Narkoojee has produced fruit of exceptional quality which was fermented using wild yeasts, indigenous to our vineyard. The wine has been matured in older French oak barriques, with a small portion new, to introduce a note of subtle complexity to the varietal fruit. This is a beautifully balanced wine with a lovely creamy texture, natural mineral acidity and is an ideal accompaniment to seafood. It will develop further in the bottle over the next five years.

Winery & Vintage Info
“Outstanding winery regularly producing wines of exemplary quality and typicity.”
James Halliday – Australian Wine Companion 2020 Edition
Narkoojee, meaning “place of flowers”, was a dairy farm owned and operated by Edna and Athelstan Friend, since the early 1940s. Their son Harry planted the first experimental vines back in 1980 and with his wife Val, moved to the property from Melbourne in 1995. Narkoojee had very humble beginnings with the Cellar Door operating out of a small weatherboard bungalow at the back of Harry and Val Friend’s house. The grapes were taken to the old butter factory in Glengarry, which served as their first winery.
Father and son team, Harry and Axel Friend make for an unbeatable combination of talents. They share the desire to experiment with new techniques aiming to perfect the winemaking process, which gives Narkoojee wines their unique characteristics. Winery Notes
