Epis Chardonnay 2022
$55.00
An elegant, cellarworthy cool-climate chardonnay whose faintly mineral aromas of white peach, coriander, lime and creamy nougat are lifted by a scent of white flowers. Taut and focused, reflective of its cooler vintage, it slowly reveals a rich core of stonefruit and citrus flavour, gently backed by oak and creamy, nutty yeast-derived complexity. Give it time to develop and build and for its austerity to ease back into its fruit.

Winery
Epis
Domaine Epis is a small Macedon Ranges producer that specialises in silky, perfumed Pinot Noir and austere, mineral Chardonnay from its meticulous estate block near Woodend, plus a finely crafted and potentially long-living Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot from the mature Williams Vineyard near Kyneton, that was initially developed by central Victorian wine pioneer, Laurie Williams. Owner and operator Alex Epis, whose journey into wine occurred at a rather later time of life than most destined to craft extraordinary examples of it, is devoted to the health of his vineyard and the ripeness of his consistently low crops. The Pinot Noir and Chardonnay can be simply outstanding – as shown by the 2020 and 2019 wines respectively – and the consistency from this small vineyard is something truly remarkable.
