The fruit for this superb Chardonnay was sourced from premier vineyards in the Margaret River sub regions of Wilyabrup and Wallcliffe. Fermentation and maturation took place in French oak barriques (30% new) for a period of 10 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"whitewine-speel\" data-wysiwyg=\"styled-span\"\u003eA rich and powerful yet wonderfully harmonious and refined Margaret River Chardonnay.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrilliant pale straw colour with highlights of green around the edges and a watery hue. Streaming out of the glass are white peach, nectarine and gentle cashew scents complimented by some biscuity nougat and spice notes. Rich and gently creamy in its textural feel yet wonderfully refined, the mid weighted palate is layered with fleshy white peach, nectarine, dried honey and cashew flavours. Biscuity nougat, subtle ginger and spice elements also chime in. Perfectly harmonious, it has a long driving finish.\u003cbr\u003eDrink over the next 5-6 years.\u003cbr\u003eAlc. 13.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eOther Reviews….\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat a great release, fresh and mineral yet showing a touch of the sun from the warmer vintage. Aromas of Meyer lemons, oyster shell, shortbread, crushed river stones and grapefruit pith. The refined palate is tightly wound with focused acidity and underlying power that will only develop. So much generosity with a hint of funk, pure drive and a precise, compact style. Excellent. Drink or hold. Screw cap.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96 Points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eJamesSuckling.com\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA slightly more generous style of chardonnay, showing richness and concentration while retaining fine linear precision. Minerally lemon curd with a savoury edge, intense and sustained. One of the best under this label.
