Established in 1995, Toolangi Vineyard is in the Dixons Creek subregion of the Yarra Valley, adjoining the Toolangi State Forest. This low-cropping vineyard is planted to the Gingin, Mendoza and I10V3 clones and sits on fine clay loam. Year after year, it produces wines with a distinctive personality and strong sense of place.

After a string of years with poor flowering and low yields, 2024 provided some welcome respite for Yarra growers. Along with better yields came top-notch, powerful, concentrated fruit. From Chardonnay master Kaspar Hermann at Toolangi, the 2024 wines are attractive and delicious, full of regional charm and eminent drinkability. This fruit came off the vine on 2nd March and was destemmed and pressed to French oak (10% new) for fermentation on lees. The wine then matured in wood for nine months. As always, it punches well above its weight, delivering Yarra Valley pedigree at a stunning price. 

"A mix of clones. 10% new oak, 20% mlf. Brightly coloured. Aromas of stone fruits, orange blossom and a hint of spice. The palate is flavoursome, balanced and gently saline. An excellent version of this affordably priced wine. Drink now and over the next 3–4 years.” 93pts | Philip Rich | Halliday The Wine Companion
