Mr. Hugh Mornington Peninsula Blue Range Estate Chardonnay 2024

From this very good year comes an excellent example of what the Mornington can do. It’s a wine of impeccable balance and poise, and deep and precise concentrated power. On the nose, a slightly savoury chalky and light stone fruit combination is cut with a fine lime zest. Palate is deeply concentrated, but retains that Mornington linear structure, with a chalky acidity working its magic to sustain through to an extended finish. There’s a real lip-smacking feel in the mouth here. Excellent wine.
