Crystallized ginger and licorice weave through a core of poached pear and lemon zest. The palate is all tension and focus. Citrus cuts through white orchard fruit with phenolic grip. That ginger-spice thread runs straight through to the smoky, acid-driven finish.

Giant Steps

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.
