LTD Coonawarra Reserve Chardonnay 2021
About the wine
Elegant & refined cool-climate treasure
- Now here’s a great example of Chardonnay from Coonawarra where the cool climate lets the flavours and natural acidity grow together in harmony. A limited release, only made for Christmas!
- This elegant drop was made to be fresh and complex. There’s a hint of creaminess, and nuttiness from the oak, but it never overpowers the natural fruit flavours of ripe peach, melon and tropical fruits. And oh, what a lovely, lengthy, smooth finish!
- Luke’s winemaking career is decked in medals and awards. Don’t miss the chance to try this expertly crafted wine.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Luke Tocaciu
Born and raised in Coonawarra, SA, Luke makes sensational wines that shout of his 'terra rossa' region, injecting his own vision and personality along the way. He's won numerous awards including 7 trophies, dozens of phenomenal Halliday ratings and a place in the Top 50 Young Guns of Wine.
As a kid, he earned his pocket money helping out in the family vineyards. It wasn’t long before he was bitten by the wine bug, and a degree plus vintages in South Australia and Sonoma (USA) soon followed. Ready to make his mark, he returned to the family business to develop drops alongside his Dad, local legend Patrick.
But in 2013, Patrick suddenly passed away, leaving the family bereaved and the winery without its chief winemaker and CEO. Not even 30 yet, Luke had to shoulder a ton of extra responsibility if the business was to continue. So Angels stepped in and gave Luke the assurance to continue his family legacy and keep making the wine he loves - which he does to this day.
