Description
Product Description: Bubb + Pooley Chardonnay 2024 is a refined cool-climate white wine from Tasmania’s Coal River Valley, crafted by winemaking duo Justin Bubb and Anna Pooley. Sourced from select vineyard parcels across the valley, the wine reflects the region’s limestone influence and maritime climate, delivering clarity, tension and natural balance. The 2024 vintage was fermented using a combination of concrete and French oak, with no malolactic conversion, preserving freshness and vibrancy while allowing subtle texture to develop. Lees contact contributes a gentle mid-palate weight without obscuring the wine’s precision. In the glass, it presents with aromatic restraint rather than overt richness, favouring purity and structure. The style is firmly modern and minimal-intervention, highlighting site expression over winemaking artefact. This Chardonnay balances fruit definition with mineral drive, offering elegance rather than opulence. It is approachable in its youth yet structured enough to reward short-term cellaring and thoughtful food pairing. Tasting Notes NOSE – Fresh and restrained Aromas of white peach, green apple and citrus blossom, layered with subtle wet stone and almond skin. PALATE – Crisp and finely textured Bright lemon and pear flavours framed by lively acidity, delicate lees texture and a chalky mineral core.
