Robert Oatley Finisterre Margaret River Chardonnay 2019

Share

From the Karridale and Wilyabrup sub-regions, whole bunch pressed to 50% new French oak, the remainder to a mix of one and two year old oak. Indigenous yeasts, before ten months in new French barriques. 17,700 bottles. Make sure you get some. I loved the 2018; this might top it. 

This is fresh with lovely light citrus notes. Lemon zest. The oak is nearly invisible. This is a delightfully bright, vibrant, clean style. Subtle and seamless and stonefruit notes move in on the palate. Surprisingly good length here. Why surprising? Check the price. This is really good.
