Australia’s first 100-point score awarded to a white table wine!
The 2022 Giaconda Chardonnay Estate Vineyard delivers remarkable intensity, focus, and energy in a compact yet powerful expression. Aromas of nectarine and musky peach skin leap from the glass, beautifully complemented by the refined influence of French oak and a striking flinty edge. Its lush, almost chewy texture is perfectly balanced by a vibrant streak of mouth-watering acidity, leading to a tight, exceptionally long finish. A true standout, elevating the bar set by the outstanding 2021 vintage.

Critic tasting note: (2022 vintage) "The nose is mineral- and saline-driven, with expressive stone fruit aromas supported by notes of flint, grapefruit pith, shortbread cookies and graphite. The palate is giving and expressive, with high-tension acidity, a generous mouthfeel and a long-lasting finish. Exceptionally well balanced, with a high level of sophistication. Excellent. Drink or hold. Screw cap." - James Suckling
