Tasting Note

McCutcheon is typically the more robust of the Chardonnay releases, and again it’s a wine of coiled power and weight. The acidity is lower this year but yet you wouldn’t pick it in any way – it still feels tight and surprisingly restrained. The season has delivered a significant wine though, a hint of matchstick funk, the golden, nutty, bold flavours sitting below the surface like the leg muscles of a racehorse. Remarkable that it can look so fresh given the extra weight and plump mid palate.

Product Notes

Ten Minutes by Tractor's McCutcheon Chardonnay is a remarkable wine that boasts of impeccable sophistication and finesse in each sip. The wine is crafted with grapes that are handpicked, sorted meticulously, and fermented in French oak barrels to produce its distinct aroma and flavor profile. The nose opens with notes of citrus, grapefruit, and lemon zest, while the palate is dominated by flavors of melon, white peach, and a touch of butterscotch, ending with a long, smooth finish that leaves a pleasant aftertaste. This Chardonnay is bright and refreshing, making it a perfect complement to seafood dishes, poultry, and creamy pasta.

About the Winery

Ten Minutes by Tractor

It was during 1997 that the three family-owned vineyards that were apart from each other, ten minutes by tractor, got together to form the Ten Minutes by Tractor brand. What started with 3 vineyards has now grown to more than 200 vineyards in the region of Mornington Peninsula. The excellent climate and soil of this area have given it the distinction of creating the finest Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grape varietals in Australia.
