Sidewood Estate Chardonnay 2024 from the Adelaide Hills is a sustainably grown, meticulously crafted wine made from Dijon clones 95 and 76. The grapes are handpicked from low-yield vines, partially whole-bunch pressed, and wild yeast fermented in French hogsheads and puncheons, with 30% new oak influence. It is matured for 10 months, producing a generously complex wine with enticing aromas of white peach, nectarine, and grapefruit.

The palate is lively and structured, featuring delightful flavors of grilled hazelnut, finger lime, and a slaty, mineral-driven acidity. Fine oak tannins provide a powerful structure, making this Chardonnay tight, racy, and a wine that will reward careful cellaring. This 2024 Sidewood Estate Chardonnay pairs well with seafood, poultry, and rich creamy dishes, showcasing the elegance and finesse of a cool-climate Adelaide Hills Chardonnay. It has received critical acclaim and multiple awards, underscoring its quality and appeal.​
