2019 Estate Chardonnay | 1.5L Magnum

This is a unique offering from Dobbin that is taken from one barrel of the estate’s Charlene Vineyard.

“This magnum is an exciting indication of where we are going and what possibilities lie in the terroir of our special location,” the team says in its bottle notes.

“These are extremely limited (135 magnums), but we wanted to share a few as it sincerely has us anticipating what we will get out of our estate plantings.”

"It shows a light golden colour in the glass and has a rich and concentrated nose of ripe pear, wildflowers, stony minerality, yellow apples, lemon zest and integrated spice notes. This is such a deep and concentrated Chardonnay on the palate with swirling chalky/flinty minerality, stone fruits, zesty citrus notes, toasted almonds and spice with a long, finessed and echoing finish. A treat of a Chardonnay that will improve for 5+ years in the cellar."
