Bass Phillip Premium Chardonnay
Bass Phillip Premium Chardonnay is an exquisite expression of Australian cool-climate winemaking. Sourced from Bass Phillip's close-planted, dry-grown, old-vine Leongatha vineyard, the fruit is whole-bunch pressed into a mix of new and old oak for natural fermentation. Founder Phillip Jones was a Henri Jayer follower and passed the baton to fellow Jayer acolyte and new owner, Jean-Marie Fourrier of Domaine Fourrier in Gevrey-Chambertin.. This exciting new era for Bass Phillip, one of Australia's most idiosyncratic wineries, cements its reputation as a world-class producer. Bass Phillip Premium Chardonnay is a textural apogee of finesse and sophistication.
