Mayfield Vineyard Premier Range Chardonnay 'Thomas' 2022

Named for one of the founding generations of the estate, Thomas 2022 is the flagship Chardonnay from Mayfield Vineyard, showcasing the elegance, precision and ageing potential that define the finest cool-climate wines of Orange, NSW. Sourced from the estate's high-altitude vineyard and crafted with minimal intervention, this is a sophisticated Chardonnay built for both immediate enjoyment and long-term cellaring.

Bright straw with a youthful green hue, the wine opens with lifted aromas of lemon zest, honeysuckle, green bean and subtle toasted oak. The palate is beautifully layered and complex, revealing notes of beeswax, roasted almond, white stone fruit and a flinty mineral edge. Textural yet tightly focused, vibrant natural acidity provides exceptional line, length and balance.

Matured in a combination of new and seasoned French oak, with a portion undergoing malolactic fermentation, Thomas strikes a perfect balance between fruit purity, texture and complexity. Built to evolve gracefully, it can be enjoyed now or cellared confidently for a decade or more.
