Dawson James Chardonnay 2020
$65.00From the Far Horse Block of the Meadowbank vineyard, situated in the Derwent Valley, Southern Tasmania and planted in 2000. Awesome Chardonnay, and for lovers of the grape, whatever your stylistic preference, this one’s for you. Rich, it is full bodied, yet the wine’s so fresh and tensile with masses of tangy acidity. Yellow and […]

Domenica Chardonnay 2023
$55.00‘A very fine chardonnay, without quite the precision, detail and tension that I recall from other years. Stone fruit, flint, lanolin, porcini and that regional tattoo of glazed quince. Quinine bitterness at the finale. Mid-weighted and nicely nervous in the mouth, while suitably open-knit enough to breach already. Fine. Drink or hold. Screw cap.’ 95 Points […]

Traviarti Chardonnay 2023
$50.00Aged in 600 litre Stockinger demi muids, it’s a testament to the richness and depth of fruit that the oak plays only a supporting role. 2023 is a cool, wet vintage and this is looking very Chablis-like, with its silky texture, mineral grip, oyster shell and long line of salinity. Medium bodied, rounder in shape […]

CRFT Arranmore Vineyard Chardonnay 2022

A febrile, more tensile expression than its Blefari Vineyard sibling, yet with no sacrifice of flavour, nor any forage into the wilderness of hard reduction. A chiselled nose of white peach, nougatine, cashew and just the right amount of flint. The finish is long and contagious of […]

$50.00Quite different from the 2021 vintage, being more open and less structured. Very complex, with notes cashew, rockmelon, white peach, spring jasmine, butter white cherry and preserved mango. Succulent and luscious, the palate displays some darker yellow fruit, the acidity tightening the palate and applying a little more sinew and structure. A chardonnay lover’s chardonnay. […]
