Product Description:
From a single block first planted in 1981, this Chardonnay is a clear lens into Bannockburn’s DNA. Sourced from the winery’s driveway vineyard, the fruit ripens early and is harvested in multiple passes to capture both freshness and depth. The final blend is selected from barrels that best reflect the season, resulting in a Chardonnay that sits at the heart of the estate’s style.

This 2024 release shows Bannockburn at its most assured — layered with stone fruit, citrus, struck match, and subtle hay-like detail. There’s a gentle pulpy texture that moves seamlessly across the palate, carried by chalky acidity and a bright, focused finish. It is both familiar and new: a wine that feels deeply rooted in its Geelong home yet alive with seasonal nuance.
