2021 Pierro 'VR' Chardonnay

97 points, Ray Jordan, Wine Pilot
Mike Peterkin holds back a little of his chardonnay each year for this vintage reserve release. It means you are forced to keep your hands off it until release. It was a vintage that suited chardonnays, and this is a cracker. It’s quite fine and delicate and only just starting to show traces of development with a roasted cashew and light toasty character combining on the nose. The palate reveals rich flavours held with a fine savoury acidity. Lively and expressive. Still with time ahead of it.

This is so relaxed and easy to drink. It’s in its own groove, albeit with the powerful fruit flavours of Margaret River chardonnay. Pink grapefruit, Meyer lemon, white nectarine flecked with spices, some lemon curd and sweet, cedary oak, yet everything in perfect balance. A charming, super delicious vintage release.
