Josef Chromy Wines is based at Relbia, just outside Launceston in northern Tasmania, on a 61-hectare estate in the cool climate of the Tamar Valley. Founded by Joe Chromy as a celebration of his commitment to his adopted Tasmanian home, the winery produces both sparkling and table wines, with a particular reputation for Methode Traditionelle sparkling wines and cool-climate varieties including Riesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir. Alongside its wines, the estate offers a dedicated culinary experience, reflecting Josef Chromy's broader ethos of showcasing the finest food and wine Tasmania has to offer.

ZDAR represents the absolute top of Josef Chromy's three-tier range — above the everyday, fruit-driven Pepik and the site-focused Reserve range — and is only made from the winery's most outstanding sites in genuinely exceptional vintages, meaning it isn't produced every year in the same way as the standard Chardonnay. That selectivity is reflected in the price, sitting notably above Josef Chromy's standard Chardonnay release, and positions ZDAR as the estate's flagship white wine statement. Josef Chromy's Tamar Valley vineyards are already well-regarded for cool-climate Chardonnay more broadly, and a top-tier selection like ZDAR is built specifically to showcase what that site can achieve at its absolute best, rather than being a broadly available, everyday drinking wine. It's a strong pick for serious Tasmanian Chardonnay collectors or anyone wanting to explore the top of Josef Chromy's range beyond the well-known standard release.
