Giant Steps Circle of Fifths Chardonnay 2025

96 POINTS

Philip Rich - Halliday Wine Companion

A blend of equal portions of all the Giant Steps single-vineyard wines. With its aromas of white nectarine, lemon verbena, a little cashew and attractive marine scents, this is immediately appealing. On the palate it's concentrated with grapefruit pith and lemony acidity on the long finish. A class act to drink now and over the next four to six years.

Campbell Mattinson - The Wine Front

This chardonnay is gold for Australia. I mean, you drink it and just want to go shouting on about how good chardonnay is and, in particular, Australian chardonnay. One sip and it’s Put Down Your Glasses time. Peach, pear, hay and cedar: it’s complex but it’s not complicated. Intensity is excellent, as is the length. Honeysuckle notes sidle in like careless whispers. It’s like drinking a bright day.
