MARGARET RIVERCHARDONNAY
MARGARET RIVER | WESTERN AUSTRALIA
This is a classic Margaret River Chardonnay. The 2019 Voyager Estate Chardonnay is another top-line example displaying complexity, texture and restraint. This offers a wonderful purity of fruit and is perfectly countered by a savoury and mineral edge.

LENGTH, LIFE & GRACE
Four clones, four estate blocks, four tonnelleries and innumerable vinification approaches. This lends substance to the number of newly created labels; here the acidity sends a farewell lift to the finish and aftertaste. Length, life and grace"
