Right from its early genesis, Provenance Wines has existed to achieve one simple goal; to make great wines that reveal the fruit quality of special vineyards. The search for vineyards of special provenance began in the mid '90s when winemaker Scott Ireland settled in the Geelong region. Keen to work with excellent vineyards west and south of Melbourne, it didn't take long for him to realise the great potential that existed in bringing together a patchwork quilt of select vineyards from surrounding areas; hence Provenance Wines was born.

Brilliant, pale straw with a green hue. Fruit aromas reminiscent of white flowers and stone-fruit are enhanced by a cashew-like barrel ferment character. The opulent palate is testament to the low yielding season, showing layers of intense fruit kept in check by pitch-perfect natural acid. Long and persistent in finishing flavour; chalky texture plays a part in bringing this fine, balanced Chardonnay to conclusion.
