SKU: PETTIECHA19
The 2019 Petaluma Tiers Chardonnay is a complex and textured wine. Ripe white peach and grapefruit dominate with a subtle creaminess and toasty smokey oak which complement the bright juicy acidity. The Tiers vineyard in the heart of the Piccadilly Valley was planted over 40 years ago by Petaluma’s founding father Brian Croser. The soils are free draining clay loams with the geology of Clac silicate which imparts the distinctive mineral characteristic in the Tiers Chardonnay fruit that is unique to this vineyard.

”When the back label says 'This has inherited a resilience and breeding which will allow it to develop the complexity with finesse, achieved only by a few of the world's great chardonnays' it's a hard bar to leap over. This wine can't quite do it, but it's a high-class package, with great balance, precision and length.”
– James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion
