Smoke and crushed herbs lift from the glass, followed by tart raspberry and blood orange zest. The palate is all precision - fine-boned tannins frame pomegranate and rose hip tea flavors that turn savory with air. Peppercorn heat builds through the finish. Classic cool-climate restraint from Applejack, built for the cellar.

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.
