Description

Voyager’s Chardonnay vineyards are planted in the Stevens Valley area, located towards the coast, close to the township of Margaret River. The area is characterised by gentle slopes of red/brown gravelly topsoils, about one metre deep, with a stony/clay subsoil. Counting on the cooling breezes of the nearby Indian Ocean, this is an ideal mesoclimate for growing exceptional Chardonnay.

These estate vineyards were harvested between 23rd February and 8th March 2023. The core grapefruit and citrus backbone is due to the Gingin clone. The parcels of fruit were pressed and settled overnight before the core elements were blended. The grapes fermented in a combination of concrete tanks and French oak puncheons, of which 10% were new. The lees were stirred during maturation over six months to add further complexity and texture. The wines were blended and bottled in September 2023.
The small vineyard blocks and subtle nuances of different clones form the basis of a wine that displays purity, freshness and balance. Typically the fruit is harvested with a strong citrus element forming the wine’s core, with subtle hints of yellow and green tropical fruits shining through. The wine is medium-bodied with lovely texture, vibrant fruit flavours and clean, fresh, saline acidity.

Margaret River Wine

In the southwest of Western Australia, the Margaret River wine region is unique in that it is the most maritime-influenced region in all of Australia. The cool Indian ocean breezes come in through the summer to keep the temperatures around the vines steady resulting in an unusually even accumulation of warmth in the growing season. It is also quite dry as interestingly less than 20% of the annual rainfall occurs as the grapes are growing. The region’s climatic factors have been compared to what Bordeaux would be like in a dry season. While the region’s total production is relatively small (3% of Australia’s total wine production), it is responsible for 20% of our premium wine market.

Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz as well as Bordeaux blends are all very popular red wine options in the region.

For whites, refreshing blends of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon as well as complex, age worthy Chardonnays are the specialties.
