Paringa Estate Peninsula Chardonnay 2025 is a nuanced, textured Mornington Peninsula Chardonnay from winemakers Lindsay McCall and Jamie McCall — handpicked from leased local vineyards, whole bunch pressed, barrel fermented in seasoned oak puncheons, and aged for nine months with regular lees stirring to build weight and complexity. Vibrant aromas of grapefruit and lemon pith mingle with flinty barrel ferment notes, and the palate really packs a punch: vibrant fruit flavours, taut acidity, and a firm, savoury finish.

Appearance

Bright straw with golden hues — the inviting colour of a Mornington Peninsula Chardonnay barrel fermented in seasoned oak puncheons and aged for nine months on lees, with the depth and warmth that regular lees stirring and careful winemaking deliver.

Aroma

Vibrant grapefruit and lemon pith mingle with flinty barrel ferment notes — the expressive, complex aromatic profile of a whole bunch pressed Chardonnay fermented in seasoned oak, with the texture and weight that nine months of lees contact builds.

Palate

Nuanced and textured — vibrant fruit flavours with taut acidity and a firm, savoury finish. The palate really packs a punch: the weight and complexity of lees stirring, the precision of whole bunch pressing, and the flinty character of barrel fermentation all working in harmony. A Mornington Peninsula Chardonnay of genuine distinction.

Pairs With

Pan-roasted chicken with lemon and herbs, grilled barramundi, fresh oysters, or a soft washed-rind cheese — the taut acidity, textured palate, and savoury finish make this a versatile and elegant partner for seafood and poultry in every direction.
