Description
Syberia is the nickname the D'Anna family has given to the highest and steepest block of Chardonnay on the Hoddles Creek Estate vineyard.
The wine it produces each year is markedly different to the rest of the Hoddles Creek Chardonnays. Syberia is leaner, more focused and perhaps a more precise 'Chablis-eque' style of wine.
It is compact yet powerful, hence Franco allows it extra time in bottle prior to release. It's a wine which will take the next decade easily in stride.
Get in quick though, this stunner will sell out in no time!
"Delicious, wonderful expression of chardonnay delivering quite a bit of concentration compared to other Syberia releases... Elegant, refined, showing detail of fruit, spice, mineral, well-judged oak seasoning. Done with aplomb. Stellar stuff."

"A measly 300 kilograms per acre. Ouch! But the wine, oh the wine. Not much of it, but it is exceptional. Tight, linear, pure and full of all manner of citrus flavours from lemon zest, juice and pith with beautiful texture..."
