The most robust of the Individual Vineyard Chardonnay releases. Bought at the Cellar Door around 6 years ago. Such intensity on the palate. White peach, ripe grapefruit, smoky and mealy. The label on the bottle says “One of our very best vintages”. An excellent Chardonnay by any measure. Showing the strength of the Mornington Peninsula for the Burgundian varieties. Had another bottle 24 weeks later on 11th July 2023 with consistent notes. Funky smoky mealy notes with the winemaker showing his skills in a good vintage. Medium to full bodied of great intensity. Certainly an excellent new World Chardonnay. Still at 95 points.
