Established by Brian Franklin in the early 1990s, the vineyard is dry-grown and low-yielding, with a Burgundian influence guiding the winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 vintage is one of the smallest to date, with only around four barrels produced. It was a warm, generous season that delivered fruit of concentration and balance. Fermented with wild yeasts and handled with minimal intervention, the wine combines richness and vibrancy with the clarity of Tasmania’s cool-climate expression.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNOSE\u003cbr\u003e– Complex and savoury\u003cbr\u003eLanolin, nectarine, glazed lemon slices, hazelnut, and faint celery salt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePALATE\u003cbr\u003e– Rich and textural\u003cbr\u003eQuince, melon, and honeyed nougat balanced by grapefruit pith, savoury notes, and refined oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFINISH\u003cbr\u003e– Persistent and age-worthy\u003cbr\u003ePowerful length with bright acidity and structure for graceful development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStyle - White Wine\u003cbr\u003eVarietal - Chardonnay\u003cbr\u003eCountry - Australia\u003cbr\u003eRegion - Tasmania\u003cbr\u003eVintage - 2024\u003cbr\u003eBottle Size - 750ml\u003cbr\u003eABV - 14.7%\u003cbr\u003eClosure - Cork\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Apsley Gorge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41996116033623,"sku":"APSGCH-24","price":84.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/77c954d8-82af-4dce-b2be-bc4cf5fd7480.jpg?v=1758938747","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.com.au\/products\/apsley-gorge-chardonnay-2024","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
