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. A classy wine for drinking now–2030.

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.

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, sealed under screw cap.
