Tapanappa Piccadilly Valley Chardonnay 2022

This beautifully pitched Adelaide Hills Chardonnay shows the quality of the 2022 vintage with its delicious purity of fruit. Pale in colour, it opens with fine aromas of melon, citrus and floral fruits with touches of nougat and spicy oak plus a faint, flinty edge. The palate is then bright and vibrant thanks to a crisp acid backbone with genuine complexity with a nice touch of grip to finish. I’ve probably been a little harsh here and time will bring it up a notch or two.
