Estate
Soumah — an abbreviation of South of Upper Maroondah — in the Yarra Valley, known for Italian varieties and single-vineyard bottlings. James Halliday Five Star (top 10%).
Region
The cool Yarra Valley, a heartland for Chardonnay.
Variety & Style
"d'Soumah" is the estate's entry range, made for freshness and immediate drinking: citrus, green apple and white flowers with little or no oak.
What to Expect
The most direct and least complicated wine in the estate's range. Its job is not to display depth but to deliver a clean cool-climate Chardonnay at a low price. For more layers, move to Hexham (#8) or Equilibrio (#54).
Serving
10°C. Seafood, salads, white meat, everyday dinners.
