Rochford Estate Chardonnay 2023 x 12
The 2022 Estate Chardonnay opens with notes of candle wax, cashew, stone fruits, and oak spice. There is a generosity of aroma, continuing to unfurl given air. On the palate there is white peach, crisp nectarine and saline acids forming nice length to the wine. The phenolics are fine but add nicely to the texture of this wine. Being such a low yielding Chardonnay vintage, we have an elevation of con centration of flavour but never at the expense of vitality.
94 POINTS - HALLIDAY WINE COMPANION - PHILIP RICH- APRIL 2024
‘The fruit is sourced from vineyards in Gruyere and Woori Yallock. Whole-bunch pressed
to barriques, puncheons and a foundre, 15% new wood and mlf. A light, bright, green
gold. White peach and nectarines together with a little orange blosson and grapefruit
pith. Even and long on the palate, and I like the each-way bet here between enjoying
this now but knowing it will still be looking good three to four years from now.’
