2023 The Other Right Fawn Chardonnay

‘Fawn’ is The Other Right’s beautifully bold yet refined take on full-bodied Chardonnay. Crafted by Alex Schulkin and Galit Shachaf, this Adelaide Hills standout blends natural winemaking with a nod to the lush Chardonnays of the past—minus the weighty excess. The result? A wine that balances richness with vibrancy, offering a contemporary twist on an old-school classic.

The fruit comes from Brendan Cameron’s organic (in-conversion) Lansdowne Vineyard in Forreston, where Chardonnay thrives in cool-climate conditions. Fermented in stainless steel for three weeks before spending eight months in seasoned French oak, the wine undergoes gentle oxidative aging to develop layers of texture and complexity. No additions, no interventions—just pure craftsmanship.

Expect stone fruits, hints of nuttiness, and a saline edge that underscores the wine’s flinty mineral backbone. It’s luscious yet precise, with a supple mouthfeel that’s equally at home with food or as a standalone sipper.

With only 80 dozen made, ‘Fawn’ is a rare opportunity to experience Adelaide Hills Chardonnay reimagined.
