Brief Notes. More full bodied showing luscious stone fruit notes than you normally get from this Cuvée. Full bodied and ripe - medium minus acid. Delicious and mouth filling - you can’t help but love this wine.

Pale lemon in colour. Leesy nutty aromas. The palate is fuller than you normally get in the Yarra Valley with more stone fruit flavours and a smooth silky finish. A very moreish Chardonnay where the bottle disappeared quickly. Had another bottle 75 weeks later on 19th February 2023. A typically good Yarra Valley Chardonnay drinking at its peak. I will have the last bottle later this year.

#winery just bought by #jacksonfamily wines and I completely understand why. Amazing. #yarravalley#chardonnay pale lemon color, the wine has pronounced aromas of citrus (lemon, nectarine and grapefruit) and stone fruit (apricot) with secondary aromas of toast, flint and butter. On the palate the wine is dry with medium (+) acidity, medium/high 13,5% alcohol, medium(+) body and pronounced flavours. With a certain hint of lemon yoghurt and cream. Medium (+) Creamy finish. Outstanding #australia

Probably best to drink these Giant Steps Chardonnays from inception to 6 or 7 years. A touch of oxidation amongst the citrus and stone fruit notes. Best QPR of any producer in Australia IMO.

They don’t pour side by side to compare but to show contrast in subregions. By doing this it’s hard not to play favourites. The Sexton took my fancy over the Tarraford.

Citrus flavors and stone fruits dominate from nose to palate. Beautifully integrated oak. A presence in the mouth but never “fat”. An excellent accompaniment to our Madai sashimi.

Full bodied Chardonnay with a roller coaster palate. The nose is clean, green apple, peach blossom, and fresh lime. Slight oak presence, with spice and vanilla notes. The front palate moves almost effervescent, sharp, hard peach and young red Apple, crisp... Which transforms into a back palate that finishes long and brooding. honey suckle, ripe white peach, vanilla, and beautiful toast, creamy close. Fascinating wine

Nose of citrus, touch of pear/peach. A restrained wine yet with good intensity. Well constructed by a skilful winemaker in Steve Flamsteed. 2010 vintage.
