“This does the trick of marrying fruit character with hot, flinty minerality in the best sense. Spice, green apple, grapefruit, ginger, puckering lime. A sleek, light weight and fresh feel with some waxiness to texture and a brittle, stony finish. Energetic wine. Refreshing. 92pts.”
Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
“The 2023 Murdoch Hill Chardonnay showcases bright and focused fruit flavors, with notes of citrus, green apple, and zesty grapefruit. Its vibrant acidity and precise structure create a refreshing and elegant palate, reflecting the cool climate of Adelaide Hills.
Careful barrel fermentation and lees work add layers of complexity, giving the wine subtle depth and finesse. With a fine acid line and a balanced, refreshing finish, this Chardonnay is both vibrant and refined, perfect for enjoying now or cellaring for additional complexity.”
