Region: Ballarat
Variety: Chardonnay
What's in the glass: This is a richer, opulent expression, and I think through recent chardonnay tastings and know that its bandwidth and tempo will be skittled in line ups for those with more filigree, tension and pace. That being said, merit here for concentration of fruit flavour, softness and beautiful, gently palate-staining flow, the harmony of honey butter, hazy, green apple juice, peachy notes, nougat, briny minerality and light toffee characters. By no means developing beyond its years, just relaxed and beautifully, neatly old fashioned in its way. A dapper chardonnay. 95 points - Mike Bennie.
