2022 Longview Macclesfiled Chardonnay

The 2022 season started cool during flowering, some varieties were affected worse than others and only produced 50% of their usual production. Whilst dry seasons usually mean warm weather, 2022 gave us a cool and long ripening vintage. Wonderful flavour development at low sugar levels and high acids were seen all through all varietals. Whilst the yield was down across the board, 2022 will be remembered as one of the best vintages Longview has ever seen. This is no mean feat considering the outstanding 2021 vintage.

Longview is a stunning family owend Australian vineyard located just outside the historic township of Macclesfield in the Adelaide Hills. Set on undulating slopes reminiscent of old-world estates but unmistakably Australian, it has quickly established itself as one the most awarded vineyards since the inaugrual 2001 vintage.
