DESCRIPTION
Innocent Bystander Chardonnay 2021 comes from sites located in both the Upper Yarra and the valley floor, offering a combination of citrus freshness and riper stone fruit characters. Fermented with indigenous yeasts, aged for 9 months with 50% in oak barrels and 50% in stainless steel tanks on the lees. pH 3.15, total acidity 7.0 g/L, alcohol 13%. Innocent Bystander was founded in 2004 by Phil Sexton in the Yarra Valley, focusing on Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs. Selecting the finest vineyards, he aimed to create an all-encompassing wine destination complete with a renowned restaurant and boutique. The wines quickly became benchmarks in the Yarra Valley, embodying fruit brilliance, freshness, and delicacy, meticulously vinified using manual harvesting and natural yeasts. Since 2016, Brown Brothers has preserved the estate's founding style.
On the nose, fresh pear and lemon mingle with floral notes. On the palate, crisp and fresh with a beautiful amplitude. It pairs with grilled langoustines or a citrus quinoa salad. Serve between 7 and 9°C. Aging potential of 5 years and beyond.
