Identifiable by its citrus and stone-fruit flavour intensity, this wine shows enduring acidity and oak finesse. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaking Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFruit for this wine was selected from our Mendoza and Penfolds 58 clone blocks, both grown on the flat and lower lying blocks of the Coombe Farm Estate. These areas are susceptible to frost, so yield can be unpredictable. The clones are intensely flavoured due to their small berries and maintain a good level of acidity in even the warmest of years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2015 Coombe Farm Chardonnay is a 45\/55 blend of Mendoza and Penfolds 58 clones. Three batches (two P58 \u0026amp; one Mendoza) were harvested and handled separately until just prior to bottling. Each batch was fermented in French oak barriques with varying proportions of new and old oak. Approximately 10% of the barrels completed malolactic fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Conditions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2015 saw idyllic vintage conditions in the Yarra Valley.
