The first of 2 vintage Cape Mentelle wines for Sunday lunch. This was a mid yellow in colour. Aromas of ripe grapefruit and other citrus with a nutty overtone. Underripe stone fruit notes coming through on nose and palate. Medium plus intensity on the fully integrated and balanced palate. An excellent Chardonnay which you could cellar for a few more years but essentially at its peak.

Jan 8th, 2023In the mould of Leeuwin Estate Art Series (a neighbor in south Margaret River) but not as full and lush as the Art Series. This is s more modern interpretation but still intense on nose and palate. With Grapefruit but also stone fruit and a touch of gingerbread. Great length. An excellent Margaret River Chardonnay.
