The vineyard lies on the south side of the Calgardup Brook which is a westerly flowing stream just south of Witchcliffe. With a gentle northerly aspect and the westerly influence this is a very good vineyard. Vineyard management takes a back to basics approach at McHenry Hohnen embracing sustainable 'Old School' practices that were used before the rise of intense agriculture. | |

Tasting note |
The nose opens with notes of oyster shell and frangipani with delicate nashi pear and nectarine. On the palate, this Chardonnay shows a beautiful complexity both from wild fermentation and extended time on lees. A distinctive saline acidity also comes through and the length is excellent.
