Howard Park Allingham Chardonnay 2022

This robust and powerful expression of Margaret River Chardonnay is defined by new oak at this early stage but will all come together given time. Right now it delivers rich layers of toasty vanillin oak, sweet peach, nectarine with even some more exotic mango in the mix. Mouthfilling flavour although still taut, this is decadent for Margaret River, with subtle smoky/flinty complexity adding finer detail. It’s a wine built for the long haul.
