Nick Spencer Tumbarumba Chardonnay

Nestled in the Maragle Valley, just 50 km north of Mount Kosciuszko and near the Victorian border, this vineyard is unlike any other in Tumbarumba. Sitting at 500m above sea level, it lies unusually low for the region — but its proximity to the Snowy Mountains creates a remarkable diurnal range: warm days followed by sharp, cooling nights as cold mountain air rushes in at sunset.

This unique microclimate — shared by only one other vineyard — produces strikingly full flavour at lower sugar levels, which is exactly what drew us to this site years ago.
