Hughes & Hughes Lees Aged Chardonnay 2024

The name says it all—this is a Chardonnay that embraces its lees ageing with confidence. Sourced exclusively from the Brinktop Vineyard in Tasmania’s Coal River Valley, the fruit reflects the region’s cool climate elegance and pristine character.

Whole-bunch pressed straight to barrel, the wine was naturally fermented and matured for ten months (30% new French oak), with partial malolactic fermentation. Extended lees contact has built a creamy, layered texture that sits beautifully alongside the wine’s citrus-driven precision.
