Description
Onannon is the brainchild of three winemaker friends (including Sam Middelton of Mount Mary fame) who are making tiny quantities of Chardonnay & Pinot Noir that evoke that sense of place so critical to great wine.
The 2020 Mornington Chardonnay is a wonderful fine boned example of cool climate Chardonnay, managing to be creamy and textured, while retaining delicacy by way of zingy natural acidity.
Invariably lovely wines from Onannon.
Nectarine, ripe grapefruit, vanilla wafer biscuit, a little spice and flint.
Smooth and even delivery of ripe Chardonnay flavour, a creamy gloss with a ripe citrus tang, a little bit savoury, a little bit fruity, but finds ideal balance for pleasurable drinking.
Finish offers watermelon rind and lime zest, and goes pretty long.
