Summary: Wild Folk - the natural choice in wine - are pure expressions of the variety and the  vineyard. Minimal intervention in the winery ensures a joyful glass of just what mother nature  intended. Wild yeast fermented, no additions, vegan Friendly, preservative free, unfined  and unfiltered nothing but fermented grapes at their finest. 

Winemaking: A less is more regime in the vineyard and the winery has resulted in a fresher more  uncompromising wine stylistically. The 2022 is crushed and hard pressed, then wild fermented on  oak with full solids. Stirred fortnightly until bottling in July.   

Vintage 2023: A cooler and wetter spring slowed the start of vintage in 2023. Coolness was a signature of the year putting some pressure on many vineyards and yields. The individual site for Wild Folk wines here in the Yarra valley needed to take precautions and act decisively during the growing period to ensure disease pressure was well-managed and berries could achieve full flavour and phenolic ripeness. The resultant wines from these very best sites are bright and flavour-filled & will drink superbly in their youth.

Tasting Note: Yarra Chardonnay goes natural, made with premium fruit and integrated older oak. Vibrant nose with citrus, apple, and biscuit notes complemented by subtle cashew and grilled nuts. A creamy palate showing good length and lovely line with crisp acidity. A great expression of modern Yarra Valley Chardonnay. Pair with a classic roast chicken.
