2022 Optume Chardonnay
Sourced from six blocks across three sites, the 2022 Chardonnay combines volume, intensity and elegance. Matured in French oak and concrete tulips, it reveals notes of tangerine, chamomile and flint, unfolding into citrus zest and crème anglaise on the palate. Perfect with butter-poached crayfish, seared scallops or truffle risotto.
2021 Optume Shiraz
A refined evolution of Australian Shiraz, inspired by the Northern Rhône. The 2021 vintage balances red and black fruits such as loganberry, plum and cranberry, with white pepper, clove and porcini. Graceful tannins and exceptional length define this wine. Ideal with chargrilled lamb or wild mushroom ragù.
The Art of Optume
Each bottle or case of six is presented in a handcrafted timber box and accompanied by a numbered key, symbolising rarity, devotion and artistry. Experience Optume, where craftsmanship, provenance and patience converge in pursuit of perfection.
