Winery OverviewNestled in the scenic foothills of Mount Canobolas, Angullong Wines calls the cool-climate region of Orange, New South Wales home. This high-elevation area, about 350km west of Sydney, is renowned for its ancient soils and crisp, clean air. The 2022 Fossil Hill Chardonnay is a true reflection of this remarkable place, capturing the regions natural purity and elegance. Vintage ConditionsThe 2022 growing season benefitted from the cool climate, allowing the Chardonnay grapes to ripen slowly and evenly. The combination of cool nights and sunny days preserved the natural acidity and vibrant fruit character, producing a wine of great finesse and balance. Winemaking ProcessThe Chardonnay grapes were fermented in a combination of new 30 and seasoned French oak barrels, with lees stirring prior to bottling to enhance the wines texture and complexity. This method showcases both the fruits purity and the subtle influence of oak, resulting in a beautifully balanced wine. Tasting NotesThe wine presents a pale straw colour with a youthful green hue. It opens with lifted aromas of melon and citrus fruits, complemented by a herbaceous nuance and a touch of oak that adds complexity. On the palate, it offers a full-flavoured, cool-climate style with natural acidity and a clean, fresh fruit character. The oak supports the fruit without overpowering it, providing an attractive mouthfeel and good length. Food PairingsThis Chardonnay pairs wonderfully with roast chicken, wild mushrooms, slow-roasted tomatoes, or dishes featuring white truffles. Its balanced acidity and texture make it a versatile match for a variety of dishes.
