Our Chardonnay has aromas of pears and melons which are repeated on the palate, with a pleasant acid backbone making this a light crisp refreshing wine, with or without food. Produced without the use of oak or malolactic fermentation, this wine develops a creamy texture as it ages but maintains its crisp flavour.

The 2007 season had drought conditions with virtually no rain during the summer months, resulting in reduced quantity of fruit but good quality.

Our Chardonnay pairs well with lighter meats (roast chicken, pork tenderloin), soft and creamy cheese (double Brie, Camembert) and cauliflower soup.

Alcohol content: 11.7% (6.9 standard drinks)
Size: 750 mL

More about this wine

2007 season

Our first vintage at Broadview under the Viridian label and what an introduction to viticulture it was!
A cold but dry winter followed by a very dry spring with frosts and snow in late October. Because our vineyard is on north facing slopes adjacent to the Derwent River we suffered little frost damage. However the drought conditions with virtually no rain during the summer months resulted in reduced quantity of fruit but good quality, particularly the Pinot noir. This year we produced still wines - Riesling, Unwooded Chardonnay and Pinot noir.
The Riesling was picked on 26 March, the Pinot noir on 31 March and the Chardonnay on 6 April.

Preservative and allergen information

We use a small amount of sulphur-based preservative (224) in all of our wines and Verjuice to stabilise the wine and ensure a long life.

All of our still wines are packaged on a bottling line that may have traces of nut products. We do not use any nuts as part of our production process.

Our white wines may contain traces of dairy products (skim milk) remaining in the wine after the fining and filtration process.

Our red wines are vegan-friendly wines, as we do not use any animal products in their production.

Packaging and recycling information

Our sparkling wine is labelled with recyclable waterproof labels (designed to remain intact in ice buckets!) and biodegradable inks. The cap, cage (muselet), foil and glass bottle are fully recyclable.

Our natural cork stopper can be composted at home or via compost collection, or recycled through ReCork (available at select Dan Murphy’s stores across Australia).

All of our still wines are labelled with compostable paper-based labels for each varietal and a handwritten year; this allows us to eliminate duplication of labels for different vintages. The screw cap and glass bottle are fully recyclable.

We ship all of our wine using recycled cardboard packaging. Sparkling wine is packaged during bottling; still wine is packaged during order processing. You may receive different packages depending on availability. We reuse boxes from tasting events and within our storage facility.
