About the wine
Rob's iconic cool climate Chardonnay returns
- If you know, you know. If you don’t… get on board - quickly! Winemaker Rob Paulazzo’s Tumbarumba Chardonnay is an absolutely exceptional White wine and makes its welcome return to Naked’s shelf with this 2023 vintage. This is a true Chardonnay for Chardonnay lovers, made in very limited quantities. It’s also the only Tumbarumba Chardonnay on Naked’s shelves - and the region is one of Australia’s best for premium Chardonnay grapes. Located at the foot of the Snowy Mountains in Southern NSW, it’s one of the highest altitude, coolest climate regions in the country. That means a wine that’s crisp, with sensational natural mineral acidity and quality flavour.
- “The weather in the lead up to the 2023 vintage was cool and mild,” reveals Rob. “That helped the grapes produce excellent flavour, while also maintaining the region’s typically high natural acidity.” The consistency in ripening led to optimal flavour and grapes that Rob says were simply “outstanding.” Rob’s access to these single vineyard grapes saw previous vintages of this wine rack up a legion of fans, and a swag of gold medals at wine shows too. “It gets the royal treatment from vineyard to bottle,” he says, proudly.
- The Chardonnay has delectable aromas of grapefruit and white nectarine, combined with green melon and hints of cashews and toasty oak. In your mouth, you’ll also enjoy crisp flavours of green apple, fig and honeydew melon. That legendary mineral acidity meets with a creamy texture and nutty oak, providing wonderful balance to this long, complex and structured drop. Welcome back… or welcome to the club!
