Tambo Merrill Chardonnay 2011 (Gippsland)
This is the most developed expression of any chardonnay produced by Alastair Butt at Tambo vineyard. It has awesome power, grace, depth and finesse; pure grapefruit, nectarine and peach flesh aromas are framed by complex, toasty, grilled nuts; the palate is amazingly concentrated, yet portrays a lightness that is completely beguiling and incredibly long.
This Cellar Release of Tambo Merrill Chardonnay 2011 vintage has a richness and roundness that has developed as the wine ages and softens, layering fresh-fruit aromatics with hazelnut, vanilla and toast. Excellent length and depth with a clean lingering finish on the Tambo Merrill Chardonnay 2011.

An interest in wine developed from a misspent youth living and working in parts of Europe where wine was an everyday beverage.
Classic and everyday wines were enjoyed in different parts of Europe and vineyards, regions and wineries were visited. From a background in farming in south east Queensland it was a revelation that wines of perceived quality, classic wines, could be produced that far from the equator with such a variable climate.
Over this time a belief developed that classic wines of a world standard could be produced in Australia. Driven by data in relation to relatively consistent intermediate temperature and sunlight hours in autumn the part of south east Australia that stood out was the Gippsland Lakes area of East Gippsland.
The mountains to the north, ocean water and Tasmania to the south combined to produce a rainshadow. This had the effect of increasing sunlight hours and the proximity to the water mass of the ocean and the Gippsland Lakes increased the humidity in the air and reduced temperature variability.
Parts of this area had the characteristics of a cool temperate maritime rainshadow. Driven by the mantra go to a cool area and find a warm site the search was further refined to include a north east facing slope with low soil fertility. A turn out paddock of a former dairy farm between the Gippsland Lakes and the mountains in south east Australia ticked all the boxes with afternoon sea breezes further moderating the daily temperature.
