Tension is such a ridiculously good description of how all the flavours play with one another. This is a gloriously complex Chardonnay, keep looking for layers because there are more than you will find. Dave Bicknell is a master at producing fantastic Yarra Chardonnays...when left to his own devices the wines just go to the next level.
Chablisienne in style, this is where you want to go if you do not want to buy Chablis. There is a wonderful line of minerality that passes through the nose and the palate that just sings Chablis. Notes of peach, nectarines and green apple delight and then the palate shows perfectly balanced acid and minerality, that works perfectly with flavours of orange and a hint of yellow peach. This is glorious wine.
"A bright green gold, this opens with green apple, lemon curd, some Japanese pickled ginger and a touch of freshly picked spearmint, while fresh, nicely complex and compact, finely tuned palate finishes gently vanillin and long."
