2024 Forest Hill Vineyard Estate Chardonnay

94 POINTS

Ray Jordan

A very tidy chardonnay that comes from three different sites on the Forest Hill Vineyard and Highbury Fields, with a combination of Gin Gin and Bernard clones. Richness and texture have been built in but have not been overdone. Instead, it creates a complexity of savoury fruit characters and a slightly minerally chalky character, accentuating the dry finish. Very nice wine.

Mike Bennie - Halliday Wine Companion

A lavish, lush chardonnay which has richness but not a lot of intensity, which should suit many. Toasty, sweet spices, a lick of toffee apple, some lime and preserved lemon citrus influence, a bit of talc and quite a dose of cinnamon, coconut water and cedary notes. It washes over the senses well, albeit not particularly complex. A bit diffuse, perhaps, although generally pleasing.
