Montalto is a small scale production coming from Mornington Peninsula, South Australia, where John Mitchell founded the winery in 1998. They lease several vineyards across the peninsula to showcase the true diversity of the cool climate region. This particular Chardonnay is seen to be the flagship wine of the winery, showcasing the fine line between the fruit and the winemaker, Simon Black. It shows subtle characteristics of pear, nectarine, grapefruit, with notes of brioche, hazelnut from the small contact with French Oak, and a tangy acidity to balance out this complex Chardonnay.
