Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chardonnay 2023

99
/100

Dette er uden tvivl den mest raffinerede og elegante Chardonnay i Australien. Fra Tasmanien, den kølige klimaø syd for Melbourne, Victoria. Selv næsen er ren forførelse! Citronskal, gul stenfrugt og en delikat røget mineralitet. Perfekt integrerede smagsnuancer fra barrique-lagringen, et strejf af vanilje, kanel og duftende pærefrangipane, efterfulgt af endnu mere mineralitet og stenethed. Efter den første slurk er jeg nødt til at stoppe op et øjeblik. Hold da op! En kalejdoskopisk bølge går sin gang på min tunge. Kridtholdigt stenmel, granit. Citronkød og saltet citron, friske grønne og gule æbler, appelsinskal, kumquat og physalis. De fineste krydderier sniger sig gradvist op bagfra, så ultradelikate og svævende. Det kribler af spænding. Vinen skubber uophørligt med et meget fint tryk - jeg er helt blæst væk. Det her er fantastisk!

Parker om: Chardonnay

The 2023 Chardonnay feels fleshy and wholesome compared to the crushed shell restraint of the 2022 tasted alongside. Here, the fruit has a billowing aspect, the phenolics are softer and the fruit rounder than the previous vintage. The season was the coldest and latest on record, and it was also very wet. The wine's performance in the mouth is different here; the tannins are present and accounted for, but they have less linearity than the other wines in the lineup. The acidity is salty, as per the vineyard's stamp, and the fruit is powerful, as per the same. This is a super wine. It won a slew of trophies and awards, and as a result, the wine sold out far quicker than usual. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.

Galloni om: Chardonnay

The 2023 Tolpuddle Chardonnay is a steely and tense expression that delivers powerful and highly focussed aromas of citrus and florals with a peach skin highlight. Fine French oak sits in the perfect place. Excellent density of youthful flavor follows, with flinty, delicatessen-like tones holding firm over a strong, long, adolescent finish. This is a keeper that needs another decade to hit its peak.
