Great Chardonnay, like the Australian village of Meursault, a must try for anyone who likes white Burgundy, sold out of the whole year's wine within an hour on launch day, which is a testament to the strength of the wine, definitely worth trying

Was lucky enough to arrange a trip to this winery which does not accept public visits. Good luck ever arranging a tour here without some serious connections. This brand, arguably makes Australia's best Chardonnay with smaller helpings of Shiraz, Pinot and more recently Nebbiolo. Home to one of the country's most bad-ass solid granite rock cave style cellars (see photos). Natural ferment, barrel blended, high quality fruit and less than 50,000 bottles of production per year. The first official upper Beechworth winery after Brown Brothers in lower Beechworth. Giaconda put serious Chardonnay on the map.

The site the makes the arguably best Chardonnay in Australia, take note there is no cellar door, tasting by appointment.
