Spring Chardonnay Plantings
Over the last few weeks, our Viticulture team have been hard at work planting approximately 12ha of Gingin clone Chardonnay across our Home Vineyard (Tom's Plots) and Gnarawary Vineyard (Gnarawary and Darch Plots).
As a general rule, Chardonnay vines prefer heavier soils with high clay content and good moisture retention, their weaker root system requiring the support of these dense and fertile soil sections. Chardonnay tends to thrive in a slightly cooler climate, something we are blessed with in Margaret River, with our extreme maritime influence.
We look forward to sharing more updates as these beautiful new vines progress.
