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.

More mature notes showing nougat and a little struck match. Last tried 4 years ago. On the palate nectarine with good intensity and balance. Oak in the background. Very good Chardonnay. 2010 vintage.

Beautifully aged with only 7-years behind it. An ideal Chardonnay to introduce to any "Chardonnay" skeptics. Perfect amount of oak with good mouth feel. Medium bodied palate with dried apples and hard cheese on the nose. Divine.

Strong oak on the nose but we'll integrated when tasted. Delicious rich flavour and very well balanced.
