GOLD 95 POINTS - 2022 Scotchmans Hill Chardonnay James Halliday's 2023 Top 100 wine guide. Top 20 wines priced over $30 |
| Tasting Notes | This is a complex and lively wine showing nectarine and grapefruit aromas rounded out by creamy notes and nutty oak. The palate is fresh with a mineral edge of white peach and grapefruit making way to a savoury mid palate and cashew nut oak finish. There is tremendous drive and structure with this wine which will reward cellaring over the next 6 to 8 years. |
