Wine Summary Image

Grey Label Chardonnay was sourced from selected vineyards in the more elevated regions of the Adelaide Hills, around Piccadilly and Lenswood. The cool, high-altitude climate benefits from occasional fog and cloud cover which, together with long bursts of gentle sunshine, allow for long, slow ripening and full flavour development, while retaining high natural acidity and low pH. Diversity in vineyard altitudes and soils has ultimately resulted in a true reflection of the region’s terroir – an elegant and complex wine with a purity of fruit and refined flavours. Chardonnay was predominantly hand picked, and was 100% fermented in French oak. 100% malolactic fermentation and 8 months maturation with lees stirring every 2-3 weeks provided complexity and oxidative protection.

Winery Tasting Notes

Nose

Lively and fresh with bright grapefruit aromas supported by fine, toasted sesame notes and nougat, lifted by wet stone mineral flint.

Flavours and Palate

Delicate yet powerful. A core of bright grapefruit and white nectarine provides succulent flavour, complemented by subtle phenolic texture and a fine long acid line. Well integrated French oak gives complexity to the fruit core while the fine flinty edge adds another layer of interest and speaks of the provenance of this cool climate region.

Winery Profile

Award Winning Winery

Wolf Blass Wines has grown from a humble tin shed to become one of the world's most successful and awarded wineries.

Wolf Blass was created in 1973 when Wolf started his own business, purchasing a 2.5 acre land holding with an old army shed outside Nuriootpa, at the northern end of the Barossa Valley.

In researching the name Bilyara, Wolf learned it was the Aboriginal name for "Eaglehawk" and given the eagle was also the national emblem of Germany, he decided his wines would carry the Eagle - a legacy that continues today and into the future.

Wolf Blass Wines won three consecutive Jimmy Watson Trophies with Black Label, generating substantial publicity and hype. In 1999, Wolf Blass Black Label made history, becoming the only wine to win the coveted Jimmy Watson Trophy an unprecedented four times.

From this time onwards, growth has been impressive and inspiring with Wolf Blass winning a grand total of more than 3,000 awards at national and international wine shows, including most recently, International Red Winemaker of the Year at the 2008 International Wine Challenge in London.

Wolf Blass Wines have a tradition of quality, character and consistency from the refined and elite Platinum Label, and the majestic and complex Black Label through to delicate Rieslings and crisp Chardonnays.
