After wind damage caused a particularly challenging vintage in 2006, just one barrel of Chardonnay was produced, and named ‘Destination’ as this was seen as turning point where Journey’s End was destined to sink or swim. When wine proved to be exceptional, the name stuck, and the Chardonnay has grown to become Journey’s End’s hallmark white wine.

The Destination is the pinnacle of white winemaking at Journey’s End. The nose is complex and delivers concentrated stone fruit with layers of citrus, lemongrass, tropical fruit, and hints of smoky spice attributed to generous oak aging. The ever present natural minerality and acidity ensure freshness and adds focus to a long-lasting creamy finish. The Destination is our interpretation of the great Chardonnays of Meursault.
