The Paringa Chardonnay is the estates top chardonnay wine and a single vineyard wine.

The nose is highly perfumed with a complex array of white peach, pear combining with vanilla, nougat and almonds.   The palate is classic cool climate with white fleshy stone fruits, citrus notes and a savoury nutty oak flavour that is so seductive.  The rich and textured mouthfeel gives way to a lingering balanced finish.

The name ‘The Paringa’ denotes the single-vineyard origin of this wine. Lindsay McCall planted the first vines on the Paringa Estate vineyard in 1985, with ten acres being under vine by 1990. From this site fruit of distinction is born from a combination of red volcanic (Ferrasol) soil, a north-facing aspect and altitude of 146m on Paringa Road, Red Hill South. In creating this wine viticulture and winemaking practices are approached with the intent of preserving a pure expression of the site from the soil through to bottle.
