  While this does not hold back on the flavour front, it still has electrifying acidity and detail, as is the way with this producer. It’s flinty, citrusy, tangy and juicy with the palate full of grapefruit and white peach and texture via a slip of luscious lees and high-toned oak, which is superbly integrated. It’s a chardonnay that offers immediate pleasure without a second thought, and, yet, it lingers, it’s seductive, and you want to come back for more. So I did.

  Fleshy melon and citrus fruit are at the fore on this medium gold-hued Chard from a warm vintage in Margaret River and underpinned by chalk dust, ground ginger, and toast aromas. It’s fruity, but it never feels overblown. A subtle creaminess on the palate is buoyed by tangy acidity. There’s lovely intensity and a pulse of flavor to the finish.

  The nose is deeply complex and inviting, with aromas of lemon confit, quince, lime curd and grapefruit rind. The palate is medium-bodied with focused acidity and a generous mouthfeel, giving notes of fresh pineapple, white chocolate nougat, gun smoke and orange blossoms. A good balance of power and freshness.

  The 2022 Chardonnay gives us a complete Chardonnay experience in the mouth. It is texturally plump, driven by fine salty acidity, saturated with powerful, concentrated fruit and shaped by gently grippy tannins. It's a really impressive wine, classy and composed too. 13% alcohol.

  Firm and juicy up front, with vibrant acidity, plus yuzu, lemon oil and white tea details. Lemon, apple and nectarine flavors join a touch of freshly grated ginger and lemon blossoms before lingering on the finish, where there's a spicy grace note.
