2022 Traviarti Beechworth Chardonnay

Brilliant pale straw colour with a watery hue. Elevated scents of white peach, dried honey and subtle cashew are complimented by biscuity nougat, faint crème brulee and gun flint notes. Medium bodied the palate features rich fleshy white peach, nectarine and dried honey flavours which meld into biscuity oak, nougat, subtle crème brulee, ginger and delicate spicy cashew characters on the back half. Creamy and sleek in texture yet finishing fresh, it concludes long refined and classy.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 12.8%

Lovely flavour, excellent length, great drive. Lemon and pear with plenty of sweet spice notes and then with stonefruit kernel-like notes bursting through. Hay, cracked wheat and meal notes too, these so savoury that they’re almost sweet. I love the spread to this, the silk, the drive. This is the best Traviarti Chardonnay I’ve tried. Drink 2025 - 2030+
