Paringa Estate is one of the jewels of Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula wine region, consistently making some of the nation’s leading examples of Pinot Noir, Shiraz and Chardonnay. The Peninsula or ‘PE’ label represents the first tier in the Paringa Estate range. In recent years Paringa has renewed its focus in ensuring the Peninsula range over delivers on quality and value-for-money. 

The fruit for the 2023 Paringa PE Chardonnay was sourced from Paringa’s Estate managed vineyards within the Red Hill sub-region. In the winery the fruit was whole bunch pressed, transferred to barrel on solids and barrel fermented, maturing in French oak for for 9 months. 

This offers lively aromas of citrus and stone fruit mingle with more complex flinty notes from the wild yeast component. The palate really packs a punch with vibrant fruit flavours, some solids complexity, and taut acidity which pushes out the length. Another great value Mornington Peninsula Chardonnay from the team at Paringa.
