Corryton Burge The Patroness Chardonnay 2022

This Adelaide Hills Chardonnay sees a mix of new and older oak, with batonnage, to ensure as much texture and complexity as possible. From an exciting vintage in a bright yellow gold hue. The nose offers stonefruit and tropical notes, hints of melon and mango. Excellent oak integration here, giving up a flick of cashews, and showing a real deft touch. Seamless structure with a creamy, seductive texture and a saline hint running the length. Good length with the intensity maintained throughout. This is a seriously impressive Adelaide Hills Chardonnay, great drinking now and over the next four to six years.
