LOGAN LOGAN CHARDONNAY NEW SOUTH WALES 2021 750ml

ABOUT THE WINE

Logan is a family owned and operated winery in the NSW Central Ranges area (that’s Orange and Mudgee) of which Peter Logan is the owner and head winemaker. Their grapes in Orange are amongst the coolest grown in the country, sitting at 1000 metres above sea level on an extinct volcano, Mt Canobolas. Cool to cold temperatures, long slow ripening, plenty of sunshine and ancient volcanic soil provide a particular terrior for pinot noir, pinot gris, riesling, chardonnay and other grapes, including elegant spicy shiraz. Being 400 metres lower than Orange, the neighbouring region of Mudgee has a climate characterised by warm days and cool to cold nights in the growing season, while the soils are ironstone and quartz laced gravelly loam, conditions great for growing shiraz and tempranillo with character and depth.
Logan range consists primarily of traditional varieties and blends with a couple of cold climate heroes (Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir). These wines are made purely from our grapes grown in the high altitude of Orange, in some of the highest altitude vineyards in Australia. The restraint and elegance feel European, the fruit character is distinctly Australian. The delicate embroidery on the labels reflects the unique fruit flavours of each wine. Each one is lovingly and skillfully executed. Just like the wine.
Simply put Chardonnay is one of the greatest wines in the world. It is a wine that can age and develop wonderfully if made in the right conditions. It can be rich and complex or fresh and crisp. It is a brilliant food wine. It expresses the climate and the soil in which it is made and allows the winemaker great scope to express themselves.

TASTING NOTE:

Chardonnay - the interplay of savoury and fruity aromas & flavours and the citrus and mineral drive across the palate.
