Product Notes

Kooyong Clonale Chardonnay is a remarkable Australian white wine hailing from the Mornington Peninsula. This medium-bodied, vibrant wine dazzles with its lush zesty flavours, balanced tannins, and delicate citrus aromas. There's a delightful fusion involving gentle oak, green apple, and subtle lime undertones. On the palette, its richness develops into an exquisite minerality married with a hint of tropical fruits, piercing until the finale. This deliciously textured Chardonnay boasts a complex character and refreshing longevity, making it a perfect paring for an array of seafood dishes or savoured alone.

Tasting Notes

Beautiful Chardonnay, creamy and open, flavoured with white peach and toasted nuts, all the exuberance held in check by fine acidity and pert citrus.

About the Winery

Kooyong

Kooyong Winery, nestled in the heart of Mornington Peninsula, Victoria, is an iconic site in Australia famed for its exceptional wines. The winery is most renowned for its authentic and distinctive expression of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, which are cultivated from estate-grown, hand-pruned vines.

The magic behind Kooyong's award-winning wines lies in its unique terroir. The vineyards are carefully positioned on ancient, fertile soil composed of clay and loam—a perfect bed for vine cultivation. The cool maritime climate sweeps through the vineyard providing the ideal condition for the slow, gentle ripening of the fruits, a process key to the development of the wine’s nuanced flavours.

At Kooyong Winery, there's a palpable commitment to sustainable farming. Methods such as soil regeneration; pest control through natural predators, and reliance on rainfall and underground water for irrigation are testament to this eco-conscious approach.

Visitors to the estate are treated to a truly immersive experience. The tasting room, located in a sophisticated yet cosy area, invites guests to sample the winery's exquisite line of produce beneath the high, oak-lined ceilings. The scenic views over the vineyards from the floor-to-ceiling windows provides the perfect backdrop to this sensory expedition.

An integral part of the cellar door experience, you can indulge in the winery's contemporary, locally sourced menu. It pairs wonderfully with the wines and is a culinary delight in its own right!

For wine connoisseurs and those with interest alike, Kooyong Winery is not just a wine estate; it's a tangible testament to the art of winemaking and the fervour for the craft that can only manifest from a deep-rooted respect toward nature and tradition.

To put it simply – a visit to the estate is a jaunt into the heart of Australian viticulture, a journey that promises to elicit joy and admiration at every turn. So here's to Kooyong Winery; where each bottle is a love letter to the art of vine-growing and each sip is a sensory voyage into the depths of this craft.
