Another fine example of the wine that can be made from the cold climate region of Tumbarumba. We have been making Chardonnay from this region for over 30 years.

Aromas are delicate and refined, featuring notes of green apple, citrus, and pear, with a subtle mineral undertone. The cool climate of Tumbarumba enhances the retention of natural acidity, providing a zesty backdrop to the aromatics.

The French oak fermentation and aging impart a creamy, buttery texture, along with nuances of vanilla, toasted nuts, and a touch of spice. This combination of flavours creates a well-balanced and complex profile.

Awards & Reviews

96 Points - Halliday Wine Companion, Toni Paterson

" A spectacularly impressive, detailed single-vineyard chardonnay with waxy green almond and flinty notes overlaying a core of textured, expansive, citrusy fruit. The steely core of acidity draws you in and commands your attention. It is wildly complex, mesmerising and utterly gorgeous. Serve in a large glass to allow the layers to expand and grow. A light chill is all that's required. Incredible quality for the price."

93 Points - The Real Review, Aaron Brasher

"Complex and lifted aromas of struck match, grapefruit pith, just-ripe white stone fruit and a nutty mealiness. There's lovey drive and poise here, with citrus, nectarine, oak and lively acidity all working very nicely together. Long, textured and with real presence."

93 Points - The Real Review, Huon Hooke

"Medium straw yellow colour. Nougat, pineapple and hint of seaspray on the nose. Lovely focus and tension across the palate, green apple and just ripe nectarine fruits are well matched to sea shell minerality and a hint of smoky nut complexity. Good length, crisp and zippy to the finish."

Sourced from the Revee Vineyard in Tumbarumba, this Single Vineyard Chardonnay captures the purity and elegance of one of Australia’s premier cool-climate wine regions. Nestled in the foothills of the Snowy Mountains, the vineyard’s high altitude and cool nights help create exceptional balance, freshness and complexity.

Pale straw in colour with youthful green hues, the wine opens with inviting aromas of white peach, ripe fig, citrus and pear, layered with subtle mineral notes. The palate is rich yet refined, combining vibrant natural acidity with flavours of honeydew melon, grapefruit and green apple.

French oak fermentation and maturation add texture and depth, bringing creamy roasted nut characters, hints of vanilla and spice, and the added complexity of wild fermentation. The result is a beautifully balanced Chardonnay with a long, elegant finish of citrus, gentle oak and fine mineral notes.

A perfect match for roasted poultry, seafood and creamy pasta dishes, this Chardonnay is both expressive and sophisticated, showcasing the distinctive character of Tumbarumba’s cool-climate terroir.

Awards won

Bronze Medal at the Royal Sydney Wine Show 2025, 86 points.

Grown along the banks of the Hunter River this Chardonnay hails from the oldest continually operating vineyard in Australia, Dalwood. First planted by George Wyndham in 1828 this vineyard is a piece of living history that continues in this wine.

Our 2024 SV Hunter Valley Chardonnay is a well-balanced and complex wine that showcases the characteristics of both the region and the winemaking process. Its flavour profile offers a delightful combination of fruitiness and oak-driven nuances.

Given the Hunter Valley's climate and terroir, our Chardonnay has flavours of ripe citrus fruits like lemon and grapefruit, along with peach and apricot. The influence of French oak brings further complexity. Notes of toasted oak, vanilla, and butterscotch. The acidity strikes a balance between crispness and richness. For this wine we chose to use French oak barrels for fermentation. This imparts specific flavours and textures to the wine. These include notes of vanilla, butter, spice, and a creamy mouthfeel.

For those looking to pair this Chardonnay with food you’ll be happy to know it is versatile when it comes to food pairing. It can complement a wide range of dishes, including seafood, poultry, creamy pasta dishes, and even some lighter meats. The wine's acidity and oak influence can make it a great match for dishes with buttery or creamy sauces.
