Description
This usually Peter's best wine and the 2023 release is no exception. White nectarine and peach, white florals and minerality. The palate weight is medium high and very long with exceptional natural acidity. Drink or hold up to a decade.
The fruit was basket pressed, juice assembled then racked to barrel with some solids retained. Fermentation was allowed to proceed on wild yeast, at medium temperature. 50% malolactic fermentation occurred in barrel slowly during the winter.
Description
Pale straw. The elegantl floral nose has notes of white peach, lited lemon/lime. The palate is finer that usual and very refined, the exuberant fruit of youth is evident, pear and lime, with all the elements of high quality chardonnay falling into line behind it. Light cinnamon and ginger hint . Long and soft but with an intense core of concentrated fruit. A lick of extreemely fine vanillan wood. The persistent acidity blends seamlessly with the depth of fruit, showcasing the purity and intensity developed by the granitic soils of Beechworth.

What The Critics Say
"A very fine chardonnay, without quite the precision, detail and tension that I recall from other years. Stone fruit, flint, lanolin, porcini and that regional tattoo of glazed quince. Quinine bitterness at the finale. Mid-weighted and nicely nervous in the mouth, while suitably open-knit enough to breach already. Fine. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

ABOUT THIS BRAND
Domenica
Domenica is the project Peter Graham, who worked for 13 years with the top winery in Beechworth.

The soil is granitic, and the exposure is varied, from steep southerly slopes for the chardonnay, to a gentler north easterly aspect for the marsanne, roussanne.
