Product Notes

Giant Steps Applejack Vineyard Yarra Valley Chardonnay is a beautifully crafted wine that is rich in texture and features a complex collection of flavors. The wine is made from carefully selected chardonnay grapes grown in the well-renowned Applejack Vineyard. This wine has a pale straw color that sparkles in the glass. The aroma is dominated by the scent of citrus and white peach, with a hint of honeydew melon and subtle oak. The flavors on the palate are rich and creamy, with notes of vanilla and nutmeg shining through. The wine is well balanced with a finish that lingers, leaving a beautiful impression in the mouth. It is an excellent choice to accompany seafood and poultry dishes or to sip on its own. Overall, Giant Steps Applejack Vineyard Yarra Valley Chardonnay is an exceptional wine that is a must-try for any chardonnay lover.

Tasting Notes

This wine is bright green gold in colour. On the nose are aromas of freshly poached apples, ripe white peach and a little spice. The palate is smooth and the delicate use of oak is embedded in the texture of this beautifully structured Australian Chardonnay.

About the Winery

Giant Steps

It was during 1997 that Phil Sexton established the Giant Steps wine brand in Yarra Valley in Australia. He had the sole objective of cultivating high-quality and authentic Chardonnay and Pinot Noir fruit. He found the cool climate, gentle breeze and good soil quality to be perfect in Yarra Valley to cultivate these fruits.

Grapes that are needed for creating wines are sourced from one of these seven vineyards- Sexton, Applejack, Gruyere Farm, Tarraford, Wombat Creek, Nocton and Tosq. The popular wines that are crafted here:

  • Wines from the entire range of vines cultivated on the Yarra Valley
  • From the Chardonnays cultivated in Sexton
  • From the Chardonnays cultivated in Tarraford
  • From the Chardonnays cultivated in Wombat Creek
  • From the Pinot Noir cultivated in Sexton
  • From the Pinot Noir cultivated in Applejack
  • From the Pinot Noir cultivated in Wombat Creek
  • From the Pinot Noir of Primavera
  • From the Syrahs cultivated in Tarraford
  • From the Pinot Noir cultivated in Nocton
  • From the Pinot Noir cultivated in Tosq

The soil quality, temperature and the overall terroir of each of these vineyards are unique and very different from one another. Therefore, the wines produced by Giant Steps have a distinct taste and flavour, thereby representing the exact character of the area in which the fruits were cultivated.

In the last six years, the Giant Steps wine brand has won many accolades and awards. The crowning glory of the brand came when the wines from its stables featured in the top 100 wines in the world.  You could book for a wine tasting tour at the cellar of Giant Steps, to get a flavour of these world-class wines.

For a nominal fee, you can book Single Vineyard tours or Yarra Valley tours or Wine Flight Tours to get a sneak-peak into the quality of the wines created here.
