We are thrilled to be awarded 96 points for the 2023 Estate Chardonnay.
The 2023 growing season was the fourth cool season in a row. These 2020- 2023 La Nina seasons will be remembered for their challenges, but also the lovely elegant wines they have produced.
The appearance is crystalline, a brilliant pale straw. Delicate white blossom aromas are overlayed with fresh lime and just a hint of spice.
It’s all zesty lemon and yellow grapefruit on the palate with notes of crunchy peach and chalky limestone with a delicate, gravelly mineral line. There is real fruit concentration and power in this wine.
The 2023 Estate Chardonnay delivers precision and tension with mouthwatering acidity and a powerful drive to finish.
