Cool climate with a zesty, nutty edge 🍋✨ 

From one of Mornington Peninsula’s most prized single vineyards, the 2022 McCutcheon Chardonnay by Ten Minutes by Tractor is a standout expression of place. Sourced from one of the highest performing sites in their portfolio, this wine delivers! 

Think fresh herbs, clove, tarragon, and spice that create a beautifully aromatic introduction. The palate is equally captivating—white nectarine, macadamia, and a zesty sherbet edge give it brightness, while the soft, round, and layered texture extends into a long, lingering finish.

From the winemaker

What the maker says about this wine 👇

The 2022 season started with a very wet and variable spring before and during flowering, resulting in small bunches and reduced yields across most sites. However, the exceptional summer and autumn months that followed provided perfect ripening conditions that generated great concentration and striking flavours across all varieties.

Handpicked and hand sorted then whole bunch pressed to small and large format oak. The juice then underwent a wild yeast fermentation and natural malolactic fermentation (76%).

After 10 months of oak maturation, the wine was bottled and filtered.
