Miles From Nowhere Chardonnay

The Miles from Nowhere name comes from the journey Franklin Tate’s ancestors made over 100 years ago from Eastern Europe to Australia: upon their arrival, they felt they had travelled “miles from nowhere”.

The philosophy of Miles from Nowhere is based on a passion for seeking out precious pockets of exceptional land and vineyards across the Margaret River region.

This Chardonnay is made from fruit harvested at Challis vineyard, in the Wallcliffe area. A blend of Gin Gin selection and clone 95, the blocks chosen for this wine are cane-pruned and VSP-trained, with extensive leaf plucking to allow good air flow in this cool but sunny pocket of the best Margaret River white vineyard area.

Some drinkers may expect to find a full bodied, heavily oaked chardonnay, this Chardonnay takes a slightly different approach in showing a more delicate and youthful side, of the beloved variety.
