The Apiary is a totally natural Chardonnay, pure and raw with no filtering which gives the wine a “cloudy” appearance. Free from winemaking manipulation and artefact. Very limited!

This wine draws its name from beehives perched atop of this block at the biodynamically farmed Hazel’s vineyard in southern Margaret River. This is a pure and raw expression of place free from wine making manipulation and artefact.

A deep complex nose with lemon pastry, mandarin zest and white blossom sit on top a palate full of white nectarine and lanolin elements. The wine shows vibrancy and freshness with intertwining savouriness, waxy texture and creamy complexity all framed by attractive phenolics that carry the wine to a lingering finish.
