Description

This wine sees Seville Estate's Dylan McMahon and Gundog Estate's Matt Burton combine forces to create a powerhouse Yarra Valley Chardonnay.

These two talented young winemakers have been winning awards left, right and centre across the past few years. Dylan McMahon knows his way around a Yarra Valley Chardonnay, and Matt Burton has been named the Hunter Valley's Rising Star amongst a multitude of other accolades. It's a formidable combination of their talents.

And it comes together here seamlessly.A sensational Chardonnay for the price - Yarra fans should not hesitate.

95 Points - "Chalky texture and racy acidity combine to form the backbone to this terrific wine. It's super-savoury and flinty, with quinine and enough citrus flavours to satisfy. The palate is tightly wound and time will loosen it up. For now, enjoy its length and complexity." - Jane Faulkner (Halliday Wine Companion)

93 Points - "Aromas of grilled nuts, white flowers, white stone fruit, grapefruit pith, vanilla and oak. The flavours are well and truly in the peach and nectarine realm, nutty, layered and textured. Lovely layers of flavour, bright, crunchy acidity, long and persistent, a quite delicious mid-weighted chardonnay." - Aaron Brasher (The Real Review)<.p>

The D’Aloisio Vineyard is located in the Seville Township, with a north facing slope on red volcanic soils. The site has an altitude of 230m above sea level. Clone is I10V1. A slightly more forward and expressive style from this site.

The fruit is hand-picked to insure only clean, healthy bunches are selected. We then whole bunch press, and settle the juice overnight in tank. This is followed by a light racking directly to barrel (approx. 95% solids), where natural fermentation takes place. MLF is not encouraged and wines are sulphured directly after primary. The wines are then matured for 10 months in 30% new (225 – 500L) French oak barrels.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
