Description
Polperro Mill Hill chardonnay
An open and expressive Chardonnay with lifted lemon curd and spice on the nose.
The palate shows yellow peaches, rich creaminess and crisp minerality. A well-balanced
Chardonnay, with a beautiful length and floral finish.
Polperro are making excellent regional Chardonnay and Pinot Noir but have risen
through the pack with their own imprint on the Mornington staples. Expect saline/
sea spray character, nougat oak rippling gently through creamy stone fruit character
and a core of grape-fruity acidity bright through the wine. Classy stuff. Higher end feel
through and through.94 POINTS – Mike Bennie
The Mill Hill vineyard lies 270m above sea level,
and is the highest and one of the more exposed sites in the region. This ensures a long
ripening period which creates high levels of natural acidity which persist through to the wine.
