Pierro
Chardonnay
Margaret River, South West Australia, Western Australia, Australia
Continuing on with these amazing Margaret River Chardonnays. Following the Leeuwin Art Series and then Cullen Kevin John we now have the brilliant Pierro Chardonnay of the same standard. Aromas of cashew nut and citrus - on the palate stone fruits. Like a hypothetical cross between the Chablis like Cullen and the lusher Art Series. An excellent wine and sadly my last one. Margaret River has fantastic Chardonnay and brilliant Cabernet and blends. Begs the question as to how Chardonnay would go in Bordeaux. I guess we will never know

Dec 24th, 2018Pale Lemon in colour. Leesy Struck Match Citrus Aromas. Citric notes on palate but also a creaminess with a little nectarine. A profound intensity which makes this Chardonnay stand out from the crowd. One of the most consistently good Chardonnays in Margaret River and Australia. Will keep for a few more years but hard to see it better than it is now.

Dec 10th, 2017One of the more fruit forward Chardonnays from Margaret River - not as much as Leeuwin Estate. Impeccably made covering the stone fruit spectrum on nose and palate with finely judged French oak. Medium+ finish with short term cellaring potential. Very satisfying. Tasted again on 10th December 2016 with consistent notes. Great intensity on the palate. Touch of cinnamon on the nose.
