GAVIN HUBBLE REVIEW

Chardonnay 2024

4 Stars - 94 Points

This 2024 Chardonnay has a gold straw colour with a shining hue. On the classic nose you have inviting aromas of ripe apples, white peaches, popcorn and a subtle hint of lightly roasted almonds. On the medium weight palate, you have a good structure and breath of character, showcasing those apple and generous peach flavours along with a balanced amount of natural fruit acidity. This well-crafted wine and a charming creamy nuance and an articulate bone-dry dismount.

Food Pairing: An ideal wine with grilled or roasted chicken, pork-n-crackling, plus aged creamy cheeses.
