Stonier Chardonnay 2017 (Mornington Peninsula)
Tasting Notes
This Stonier Chardonnay 2017 vintage from the Mornington Peninsula has a very tightly wound palate, laden with a dense array of savoury citrus fruits, which gradually reveal themselves with time in the glass.
There is some subtle creamy texture that will build over the first 12 months and beyond tying in nicely with a powerful structural core that drives the palate to a long finish.
This is certainly a great vintage that will become more expansive and complex over the next 3-5 years.

Stonier was one of the first wineries to be established in the region in 1978 by Brian Stonier and his family at Merricks, on the southern edge of Victoria's Mornington Peninsula. Stonier planted Chardonnay in 1978, followed by Pinot Noir in 1982.
The 2017 season was relatively cool overall, particularly in spring, which combined with heavy spring rains to negatively impact flowering and therefore reduce yields. The conditions also led to a later than average vintage by about 10 days, with picking of all our parcels completed between March 6th and April 5th.
The 2017 Stonier Chardonnay was fermented in a mix of French oak barriques and puncheons (15% new), for a total maturation period of 10 months. Several batches from our coolest vineyards were allowed to undergo the acid-softening malolactic fermentation (approximately 50%), with the remaining portion withheld to preserve the lovely pure flavours of a very strong Chardonnay vintage.
