2024 Joshua Cooper Chardonnay
Description
WINEMAKER: Joshua Cooper
REGION: Macedon Ranges, VIC
VARIETY: Chardonnay
VITICULTURE: Organic/Sustainable
Our 2024 Chardonnay was sourced entirely from the weathered granite slopes of the Dash Farm’s vineyard, the same site as our single vineyard offering (to be released later in the year). A slightly longer pressing and ageing solely in old French oak has resulted in a beautiful Chardonnay with all the hallmarks of our house style, while also presenting a wonderful drinkability in youth. Aromatically floral and inviting with jasmine blossom, lemon zest and subtle crushed stone, the palate is focused and precise, with lemon and faint green almond flavours, yet offers lovely concentration of flavour and finely mouth coating texture. Cellar into the medium term or enjoy now in youth.
The son of biodynamic power couple Alan & Nelly Cooper of Cobaw Ridge, Joshua Cooper is one of the most exciting young winemakers in Australia. Unbelievable precision and focus. Tiny quantities, high demand, a producer to watch.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
