Gold medals also go to two of our Chardonnays, which were both awarded 95 points.

Midhill Chardonnay 2022

While tasting this, I kept singing part of Offspring’s Pretty Fly (For A White Guy), the bit that goes, ‘give it to me baby, uh huh, uh huh’. This ‘give it to me baby’ chardy is all about funky, flinty sulphides teasing the stone fruit and grapefruit within. Nougat with curd-like/grilled nutty lees flavour also accentuating the palate with oak in the background adding support.  It lingers long thanks to the acidity and all up, this is a perfect amalgam of chardonnay flavours.

Geelong Chardonnay 2023

A moreish, savoury and scintillating drink thanks to its mouth-watering acidity. More in between, though, with stone fruit, lots of citrus, all lemons and grapefruit with a dash of lime, plus woodsy spices. The palate is plumped up with cedary oak, creamy lees and fruit, yet acidity comes along and keeps it all on the straight and narrow.
