{"product_id":"patrick-sullivan-ada-river-chardonnay-2025","title":"Patrick Sullivan 'Ada River' Chardonnay 2025","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Ada River vineyard was planted in 1982 by the Kelleher family at Neerim South in the foothills of Mount Baw Baw in Gippsland. The site is comprised of uniform volcanic soils which run deep into basalt rock. Clonal selection is kept to P58 and I10V1 Chardonnay with the total plantings to chardonnay being just on a hectare. The vineyard is situated at 300m in elevation and has the fortune of 360-degree windbreaks which limit the occasional harsh winds pushing from the snowfields. The vineyard is 100% dry grown, evident through the intense fruit concentration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe ‘Ada River’ site shares the same ridgeline as the ‘Woori Yallock’ Chardonnay, with the Woori site being in the Yarra Valley while ‘Ada River’ is considered part of Gippsland. This is the most tense and linear wine in the release, juxtaposing the Woori Yallock wine from nearby which was by far the richest and roundest. Here acid is a key player, defining the shape of the wine. The fruit spectrum seems to be mainly in the citrus camp, with flavours tightly coiled and relatively shy. As the glass warms slightly, more fruit reveals itself and a saltiness appears on the back-palate. It’s a wine that builds and builds and ultimately you are left with impressive concentration of flavour that lasts and lasts. – Ches Cook, Five Way Cellars.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Five Way Cellars","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":43198762516598,"sku":"21866","price":135.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0061\/3331\/7750\/files\/16111_Image1_52c50df7-5c37-4e0c-857b-35e003e6601d.jpg?v=1773467169","url":"https:\/\/fivewaycellars.com.au\/products\/patrick-sullivan-ada-river-chardonnay-2025","provider":"Five Way Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
