Bindi Quartz Chardonnay 2009
Distinctly textural, with an underswell of minerality evident throughout its spicy, waxy and lanolin-scented bouquet of grapefruit, melon and lemon blossom. Long and pulpy, its chalky palate reveals undertones of fresh vanilla oak, struck match, cloves and ginger, building its weight and richness of spicy, citrusy flavour towards a dry and savoury finish, culminating in an oyster shell-like lick of brine.

Winery
Bindi
It hasn't taken long for Bindi to become a signature vineyard. Located on a series of wonderfully sunny cool- climate sites whose varying, gentle but fortuitously directed slopes of grey loam soils have a healthy content of quartz, Bindi can produce pinot and chardonnay of great perfume, purity and texture. Michael Dhillon recently made some interesting name and label changes to his wines, recognising important forebears and contributors to the Bindi name, none of which are more significant than Kostas Rind, Bindi's inspiration and my childhood neighbour. The 2014 wines are exemplary -Ę right on cue.
