WineSaint
Taut and mineral-driven, with lime zest and green pear shot through with sea spray and crushed oyster shell. The texture is fine-boned and nervy, all sinew and precision. That smoky, flinty character persists through the crystalline finish. Still wound tight after fourteen years.

→Giant Steps is one of the Yarra Valley's benchmark chardonnay producers, working a range of single-vineyard sites across the appellation to make wines of precision and site distinction rather than a house style imposed from above.
