Trentham Estate Chardonnay – Light straw green with sweet peach and grilled citrus aromas complementing the soft, spicy oak on the nose. The generous palate offers hazelnut & nectarine with hints of spicy preserved lemon with a long and elegant finish. From Estate grown fruit, Trentham’s Chardonnay is shaped by the ripeness of the fruit at harvest and the technique of winemaking used.
The region enjoyed a typical start to a warm and dry growing season with little rainfall in November and December, and average spring temperatures evolving into a near perfect summer growing cycle. The slightly lower yields have resulted in exceptional fruit ripeness and show an exquisite concentration of aromas and flavours. The overall season offered superb conditions for a range of varieties throughout the vineyards. Across the board, quality was outstanding.
Once harvested, the fruit was crushed, pressed and clarified. The ferment was carried out with select yeast with a portion fermented in 500L French oak puncheons. After some ageing the wine was blended, stabilised,
clarified and bottled.
We have a great selection of Trentham Estate wines which can be seen on our dedicated web page

New South Wales Wines
Australia’s first vines were planted in New South Wales on the Farm Cove foreshore. The first commercial wine was made there, and the first wine exported to England – by Gregory Blaxland in 1823. Given the size and climate diversity of NSW and its large population, it is surprising that the state does not play a bigger role in Australian wine. It is a state of great contrasts, from the huge, flat expanse of irrigated vineyards in the Riverina area near Griffith to the high uplands of Mudgee in the north. The Hunter Valley is the most recognised region within NSW, famous for its long-lived Semillons and unique styled Shiraz. Riverina is the largest wine-producing region. The more recent viticultural developments are within the regions along the Great Dividing Range: Mudgee, Orange, Cowra, Hilltops etc. There is much promise and interest in the wines now being produced within these regions.
