Felton Road Chardonnay Block 6 2024
Block 6 was planted in 1993 and is positioned on a north facing slope immediately south of Block 5 on The Elms vineyard. Its higher elevation (282-300m) and steeper slope favourably intercepts the sun but results in it being more wind exposed.
Predominantly Mendoza with some Dijon clone 95 Chardonnay from Block 6, was whole bunch pressed, settled overnight and flowed by gravity to barrel in the underground cellar. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts in seasoned French oak (no new oak) was followed by a long and complete malolactic over the spring and summer. After 17 months in barrel (11 months on gross lees) the wine was racked carefully to tank for bottling in late-August 2025. The wine was not fined or filtered.
A dense and layered white that’s mostly from Mendoza (Wente clone). It’s full-bodied but not heavy, with excellent phenolic intensity. Long and powerful. Just a hint of creaminess. Flavorful finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold. James Suckling – 96 points
