2022 Rob Hall Harriet’s Vineyard Chardonnay
Brilliant pale straw colour with greenish tinged edges and a watery hue. Fleshy peach and pear aromas are interwoven with hints of dried honey, biscuity oak, faint nougat and spice. The mid weighted palate possesses a gently creamed feel with white peach, pear and dried honey flavours holding sway over a biscuity oak, cashew, nougat and spice background. Concludes long and generous yet refined in its feel.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 13%
Other Reviews…..
From Harriet's vineyard in Healesville. Two batches: one whole-bunch pressed, the other destemmed with 24 hours' skin contact. Matured in seasoned hogsheads and puncheons. A bright green gold. Subtle and complex with its bouquet of just-picked white nectarines, lightly grilled nuts, lemongrass and a little sea spray. Fills out nicely on the mid-palate and there's a touch of grip on the finish keeping the wine focused and long. Drink by 2028.
