There are expensive chardys coming from Beechworth, but not all of them
The quality of the fruit is superb, well over the average of the country
Stylistically they use oak, but thanks to the flesh of the wines it is less prominent than what the classic oaked chardys were
In this case we have a little extraction of colour from the skins.
I like it, it has got a wonderful feel in my mouth
Beechworth is not only Giaconda. That's a good news☺️☺️ — 5 years ago

Dark and brooding. Was a little funky at first but that blew off after 1hr + in decanter. Exotic spice and richness, medium bodied but long and silky on the palate. Another fantastic Beechworth Shiraz! — 6 months ago

Mid Lemon. A nose of citrus but a palate of stone fruit. White peach and cream. Palate staining intensity with great length. Oak is totally integrated into the fruit at 9 years. Used to be regarded as Australia's premier Chardonnay and probably still is depending on your style preference. Other Margaret River icons plus Giaconda , Oakridge and Bindi amongst others in the East also vying for the mantle. World class. Halliday once compared the 1987 to a premier Cru Puligny. — 6 years ago

Only ended up with a sip of this so not really enough to judge it properly. Savaterre is a near neighbour of Giaconda who make one Australia’s best Chardonnays near Beechworth in Northern Victoria. Surpassed on the day by the other 2 Chardonnays. — 4 years ago

The colour especially the deep saturation is amazing for a 15yo wine... A Pinot from Australia for that matter! Initial sniffs are redolent of dark prunes then fresh stem which is quite pleasant. The sweet and tart juxtaposes for your attention as the acid line is as undecided as you are. — 7 years ago
