Bright raspberry and cherry lift from the glass, shot through with white pepper and dried rose petals. The palate is taut and energetic, medium-weight with silky tannins that frame the red fruit core. Fine acidity keeps everything fresh and precise through the long finish. Classic Upper Yarra restraint and poise. Give it another 3-5 years to fully unfurl.

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.
