✨ Technical Specifications
The Laneway series by McPherson pays homage to the vibrant, artistic, and bustling laneways of Melbourne, Victoria's cultural capital. Known for their hidden gems, street art, and eclectic charm, these laneways inspire a wine style that is contemporary, fresh, and highly approachable. Sourced from premium vineyards across Victoria, this Chardonnay is crafted to capture the bright, sun-drenched fruit character of the region. Winemaker Jo Nash utilizes cool fermentation techniques in stainless steel to preserve the grape's natural acidity and primary fruit aromas of white peach and nectarine, complemented by a delicate touch of oak integration that imparts a subtle, creamy texture without overwhelming the wine's vibrant, clean finish.
