Coldstream Hills Yarra Valley Pinot Chardonnay 2007

Delightfully appealing Methode Traditionelle from the Yarra Valley.  It is Pinot Noir dominant and has spent 3 years on its yeast lees giving it texture and another dimension of flavour.  Drinking well but still good to cellar a few years more.

The emphasis of the Yarra Valley wines is all about letting the unique characters of the valley shine through.  The Yarra Valley bestows purity of varietal fruit and length of flavour on each grape variety.  The Yarra Valley wines are designed to be enjoyed upon release, attractive when young, but will certainly reward with careful cellaring.

about the winery

Coldstream Hills was established in 1985 by Suzanne and James Halliday.  From its initial vintage of 450 cases it has grown to become one of Australia’s leading small wineries, with a reputation out of all proportion to its size.  Situated in the cool and beautiful Yarra Valley near the hamlet of Coldstream, its steep, close planted vineyards have become a signature of the region.  The wines are, quite literally, hand made using winemaking techniques that are directed to making wines which are characterised by elegance and finesse, by silky supple texture, length of flavour, subtle oak and the ability to develop extra dimensions with age.
