2022 Handpicked Wombat Creek Chardonnay

96 Points - Cassandra Charlick, Wine Pilot

“A silvery nose of delicate citrus notes crushed white blossom and chalky minerality kick off a delightful expression of Chardonnay in the glass. Integration of fruit, acidity and tannins is almost seamless, and a long finish in the savoury vein. Miso butter, lemon leaf, dried herbs, freshly baked sourdough, crushed seashell and super fine yet plentiful phenolics. Site shines brightly.”

96 Points - Katrina Butler, Wine Advocate

“A knockout vintage for the Yarra from a knockout site in Gladysdale, neighbouring Hoddles Creek. Sulphide worshippers will rejoice in the flinty struck-match characters, enmeshed harmoniously with the fruit, with threads of white nectarine, yuzu, fennel, apple and grapefruit. A saline, stony character greets the wine's pithy texture, adding mineral depth. It is still tightly coiled, incredibly youthful, and a sure bet for further cellaring. Pristine, prismatic chardonnay.”
