Wine Description
The aromatics of our 2019 Charli Jaye Chardonnay are classic Eden Valley ‘pear & apple’ driven, with a hint of tropical fruits and florals around the edges. This follows on the palate with a longline mouthful of fresh pears layered over smart French oak spice, with a crisp green apple finish.
Our Eden Valley cool climate Chardonnay stays true to our philosophy of seeking elegance and is subsequently well awarded. Named after our youngest granddaughter Charli, a sophisticated Chardonnay style was intended from the outset.
Vegan.

Winemaker's Bio
Joanne Irvine’s winemaking career began at an early age, following her father James Irvine “Master Merlot Maker” around the winery from age seven, undertaking the ritual tasting of ferments and wine blending.
In 2010 Jo established Wine Wise; a small batch processing facility in the Barossa to provide winemaking services to small, boutique producers. Jo believes that great wines are created by synergy and attention to detail in both the vineyard and the winery. She strives for excellence and brings passion to the quality of the wines she produces for Brockenchack.
