Product Notes

Riversdale Estate Crater Chardonnay is an exquisite Tasmanian wine that offers an enchanting sensory journey. With its exuberant aroma of peach, nectarine and subtle oak, it tantalises the senses. A medley of creamy, citrus tones graces the palate, with a desirable, crisp finish. Matured in French oak barrels, it displays an elegant complexity. Characterised by its light golden hue and smooth texture, Crater Chardonnay is splendidly balanced, demonstrating the rich terroir of Tasmania. It's an enchanting companion to a host of dishes, particularly white meats and seafood, promising an unforgettable dining experience. This Chardonnay encapsulates the essence of Riversdale Estate’s stellar winemaking.

Tasting Notes

It's splendidly fruited and inviting on the nose with dark fruit richness, charcuteries, dried herb, clove and toasted almond notes, followed by an impressively weighted palate offering richly textured mouthfeel backed by layers of fine-grained tannins. Robust yet silky and harmonious with a lengthy satisfying finish.

About the Winery

Riversdale Estate

Riversdale Estate is a family-owned property located in the heart of the Coal River Valley. The soils and climate at Riversdale have allowed generations to cultivate refined & expressive produce since 1824. The wines & produce made over the last 30 years are no exception and are reflective of the unique growing conditions on which Riversdale is situated. Riversdale is not a 'brand', it is a real place where excellence is sought in the produce it cultivates.

Vineyard

Our Estate located in the basin of the Coal River Valley. Riversdale is the only vineyard to front Pittwater which is a main component of the micro-climate at Riversdale. As a result from being adjacent to Pittwater, at some point in time the property was underwater, causing many differing soil profiles, nutrient deposits & mineral trace elements around the property. Examples of this include seabed rocks & stone discovered 1km from the water at depths of 1-2 metres. Vines were first planted in 1991 making the Estate one of the oldest in the Coal River Valley.

Viticulturally, our practices follow sustainable methods of cultivation as we endeavour to showcase & uncover the purest expression of Riversdale & her produce. Our produce has been recognised both Nationally & Internationally claiming over 40 trophies & 60 gold medals. Every single drop is 100% grown & bottled onsite.

Farm

Riversdale has long been a traditional farming property with acreage suitable for broad acre farming and running livestock. Currently the Estate runs 350 Border-Leister & 100 Merino sheep. Consequently, farming paddocks are sown with grazing crops to provide food sources year-round. The majority of the lambs are used in our Bistro and local Pubs including The Richmond Arms & Crown Inn. We also offer 'Farm to Fridge' Packages, if you are interested please contact us through our website!
