Rush's 2025 Chardonnay is clear and golden in the glass, with enticing stone fruit and crisp citrus on the nose. Charry oak and subtle oak spice are balanced by a fine acidity line and smooth texture, with hints of almond meal and a touch of reduction adding complexity. A beautifully rounded wine with excellent structure and harmony from one of the Tamar Valley's most interesting producers. Pair with fresh seafood, roast chicken, or creamy pasta. Drink now through 2030.

Tasting Notes

Clear, golden straw colour. Stonefruit, crisp citrus, charry oak with a fine acidity line. Slight reduction, oak spice, almond meal rounded out by great texture and balance.

Winemaking

Fruit was picked on the 9th April and whole bunch pressed to stainless steel for settling overnight. The juice was then racked straight to 3 oak barrels, one new, and allowed to ferment naturally. Fermented to dryness, with 2 barrels stabilised with minimal SO2 while the 3rd barrel was left over winter to complete malolactic fermentation in spring. Racked out of barrel on 31/12/25, minimal filtering and sulfur added. Bottled on the 11/1/26. 826 bottles produced

About the Vineyard

Born and raised in Sydney, NSW, Sam got his start in winemaking in the Hunter Valley. With a background in forensic chemistry, he was drawn to the industry after several years working in hospitality peaked his interest in wines. Through his label, Sam wanted to incorporate his own ideas and creativity into the types of wines he was interested in making. The end results are wines he is proud to put his family name to as examples of balanced, minimal intervention winemaking.

“Wine for me is something is tangible, something for people to enjoy. I’m not artistic, but making wine seems to be a combination of science and art which suits my background in forensic chemistry.”

We hope you enjoy these wines made by a Rush, not in a rush.

Tamar Valley

The Tamar Valley is Tasmania’s oldest wine region, located in Northern Tasmania and stretching from Launceston to the Bass Strait.

This region is renowned for its cool maritime climate and iron-rich soils, which provide ideal growing conditions for producing premium wines.

Home to over 30 family-owned wineries, the Tamar Valley accounts for more than a third of Tasmania’s total wine production. The region has a long history of viticulture, with its first commercial vineyard established in the mid-1800s at Windermere, and its cuttings even contributing to the early vineyards in South Australia.

Today, the Tamar Valley is celebrated for its Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling, and sparkling wines, all of which reflect the region’s exceptional terroir and winemaking heritage.
