"Henk has a nice sort of familiarity to it as a name. Like someone who comes around and helps fix stuff, because you’re a bit useless at doing such things yourself. I wish I had a Henk. So friendly and approachable, it’s a warm hug of a Chardonnay, and one that’ll surely melt the coolest of hearts. Lime, white peach, vanilla laced oatmeal, spice and a tiny amount of matchstick. It’s glossy and mellifluous, running smoothly and calmly from front to back, yet still has enough fine acidity and flinty texture to keep it on the straight and narrow. Finish is especially long and lovely, vanilla and lime with a fine chalk dust climax. Delightful." 94pts - Gary Walsh - WineFront

Where this wine comes from - Yarra Valley

Just 50 kilometres from Melbourne, Victoria’s Yarra Valley is a star of the wine regions surrounding the city, known as the ‘Melbourne Dress Circle’. With plenty of microclimates and sub-regions, the Yarra Valley doesn’t have a weak link. Certainly the region’s reputation has been built on the quality of its cool climate Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. As far as Chardonnay goes, Yarra Valley strikes the right balance of ripeness, without going over the edge. There’s white peach, lemon pith and Fuji apple supported by a fine spine of citrus-like acidity complemented by supportive oak maturation. The region’s Pinot Noir certainly produces that ethereal quality that Pinot-philes go crazy for – with lifted cherry notes, texture and length. Pinosity? It’s here in spades. Don’t discount Yarra Valley Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, which also have a long history in the region and are being recognised for producing their own unique regional styles. Game on!
