Pierro Chardonnay 2021

Cooler season has resulted in this distinctly linear almost Burgundy-like expression of Margaret River chardonnay. It’s one of the tightest Pierro chardonnays that I can recall, but I suspect it will age to reveal some of those beautiful vineyard qualities. Chalky minerality with a little butterscotch and savoury notes turning the screws to tighten a focused finish. Beautifully integrated palate.
