Crafted with premium Tasmanian fruit in a place where hazard meets haven, the wines in our Hazards range are rugged yet refined; named after the remarkable Hazards Mountains that serve as a backdrop to our East Coast Vineyard. The Mt Baudin Chardonnay shines with classic characters of white melon, almond and bright citrus fruits. A sophisticated white wine made from a single block of cool-climate Kayena fruit.
A Chardonnay with this class and distinction screams out for quality food accompaniments. Try it with baked whole fish Barramundi with lemon and thyme. Serve with a zesty hollandaise dressing. Or why not try it with a selection of cheese brie and camembert.

The Real Review - Stuart Knox • 06/02/2024Pale and bright lemon hue with a fragrant nose of lemon balm, roast cashew and crushed chalk. Serious and intense on the palate, it is tightly wound by bright acidity that ensures lemon and apple fruit drive long. As it flows we see nutty oak characters and bright chalky mineral elements, all adding to the complexity. It finishes very long with a cleansing brush of phenolics.
The exceptional Chardonnay is a testament to meticulous winemaking. Handpicked from the renowned Kayena Vineyard in Tasmania, only the highest quality free-run juice was chosen. This wine underwent barrel fermentation in French oak barriques, with 37% new French oak, followed by lees stirring in barrel, which imparted a luxurious texture and complexity. With its peak drinking in 2031, this vegan-friendly Chardonnay is a true reflection of its terroir, offering a harmonious blend of fruit, oak, and elegance.
