Yering Station Reserve Chardonnay 2020

Pristine fruit with elegance and restraint. I could stop there but I won’t because I have so much more to say about this exciting Chardonnay. It smells like just-sliced grapefruit with the spritz of zest in the air and the fresh, crisp scent of a cold mid-winter morning before the world has awoken. There’s a hint of freshly baked baguette and larger format barrels (500L, 20% new oak) which add a subtle vanilla spice. On the palate it shows seamless balance; bright citrus intensity and white peaches set against subtle vanilla blossom. The texture is like a fluffy homemade marshmallow – silky and mouthfilling. This is a baby, and whilst absolutely delightful now, will continue to develop stunning complexity.
