FROM THE TIERS VINEYARD, ONE OF THE MOST DISTINGUISHED SITES FOR AUSTRALIAN CHARDONNAY.
"Cashew nut, straw, biscuit and creamy lees aromas, restrained and fresh and delicate, but extremely intense and concentrated on the middle palate. The acidity is searing, a trifle domineering perhaps, but will easily be absorbed by any food. Long, long persistence. Potential plus." - Huon Hooke
"The chardonnay vines on the Tiers Vineyard in the Piccadilly Valley are all now well over 30 years old though some were planted in the late 1970s. This is an intense glide of beautiful chardonnay flavour. It had me hooked straight up. There’s an amount of struck match character here too, for the record, though the pear, white peach, grapefruit and citrus characters are where the main action is at. This is delicious. This is powerful. This is lengthy. It feels a bit wild, in a good way, but it simultaneously feels pure, somehow. It’s terrific." - Campbell Mattinson
"Planted with Chardonnay in the Piccadilly Valley in 1979, The Tiers Vineyard is in every way a “distinguished site”. It is the first vineyard planted in the Adelaide Hills thus pioneering the true cool climate wine industry of South Australia. A truly wonderful wine, better than almost all that have gone before. The delayed ripening of a very small crop in perfect cool, dry and sunny conditions, has defined a very special Chardonnay from the unique and distinguished Tiers Vineyard terroir.
