ULTRA PREMIUM
2023 Plantagenet 'York' Chardonnay
Released - March 2024.
100% Chardonnay
Pale straw colouring. A complex nose, ripe peach and nectarine, a pronounced cashew note, hints of slatey minerality. Combination of vibrant fruit sweetness, with layers of complexity borne by the winemaking techniques employed, a creaminess due to partial malo treatment, and structured acidity that provides balance and length of flavour. Yum!
Enjoy with a Mild Goat Curry.
"A light golden colour in the glass sets the scene for restrained aromas of stone fruit, hints of gooseberry and cashew cut through by the flintiness and flashes of ginger. It’s in the mouth that this comes into its own, the rich creamy palate brought to life by the lovely acidity on the tongue – and then a cool lime cordial of a finish." - The Australian.
93 Points - "A wine brimming with ripe and intense stone fruit characters from the white peach and edgy nectarine notes on the nose through to the deeply intense palate. There’s a nice cashew and creamy peach thing happening with fine acid adding precision and focus through to the finish. Really well managed wine." - Ray Jordan, Wine Pilot
