Made from grapes hand-harvested from Yarra Valley’s Willowlake Vineyard by Rob Dolan, Adrian Santolin + the team.
The grapes were whole bunch pressed and racked to light solids for a 100% barrel ferment before being matured for 9 months on 30% new French oak
Rob Dolan is known for his skill in the winery, passion for helping others, and cheeky character.
He says the trick is sourcing the best fruit, and from there, using a ‘less is more’ approach in the winery to bring the wine it to its full expression.
As an oily fish, salmon needs a wine with a good backbone of acidity. Our White Label Chardonnay has minerality and fresh apple flavours which will pair beautifully with the salmon. The elegant, toasty oak will support the herby flavours from the pepperonata.
Our winery and Cellar Door is located in Warrandyte South, just 30 minutes from Melbourne.
Our Wine Specialists will guide you through a table-side tasting as you look over the vineyard. Cheese and charcuterie boards are available with the best produce the Yarra Valley has to offer, including Stone and Crow Cheese, which is made on-site.
