2022 Nocturne Treeton SR Chardonnay Margaret River

Product Description

Julian Langworthy, the man behind Nocturne, is one of Australia’s brightest winemaking talents. Born and raised in the Margaret River, Julian made his name working for well-established wineries in Western Australia. He has won countless awards and trophies in the process, including two of Australia’s most cherished titles, the Jimmy Watson Trophy in 2014 and Halliday’s Best Winemaker in 2019. Nocturne is Julian’s solo venture. Here he creates small quantities of Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon from exceptional sites, highlighting the distinct qualities of Margaret River’s Treeton, Wilyabrup and Yallingup sub-regions. What began as a side hustle in 2010 has grown to become one of Australia’s most exciting producers. Highly sought after and in short supply.

The Chardonnay is sourced from two low-yielding, cane-pruned vineyards in Treeton, the only landlocked sub-region of Margaret River. Treeton has warm days, cool nights and deep sandy soils which produce Chardonnay with excellent natural acidity and finesse.
