2023 Rockburn Chardonnay

2023 Rockburn Chardonnay

Regular price $192.00 Sale

RRP $32

Rockburn Chardonnay leans towards the crisper and lighter end of the spectrum, demanding minimal use of oak.

The nose is pure and subtle with elements of wet stone, lemon zest and ripe peach.  The palate is full, textural with fine tension, showing lemon meringue, butterscotch and delicate minerality and a zesty finish.

A perfect complement to roast chicken, risotto, and seafood.

Upon release the wine will be bright, delicate and elegant.  Easily enjoyed upon bottling it will continue to develop and mature well over the next five to seven years.

Reviews & Accolades

94/100 (5 Stars) -  Sam Kim, Wine Orbit "Beautifully styled and expressed, the elegantly fragrant bouquet shows white flesh peach, fig, lemon pith, and nougat characters. This leads to a succulent palate delivering fine texture and splendidly pitched acidity. Wonderfully harmonious with finesse and poise, the finish is persistent and engaging”


4 Stars - Michael Cooper - "Drinking well in its youth, but also ageworthy, the 2023 vintage (****) was grown in the Bannockburn and Parkburn districts, and fermented in a mix of barrels (60%) and stainless steel tanks (40%).  Bright, light lemon/green, it is mouthfilling, with ripe, peachy, citrusy flavours, a subtle seasoning of oak, fresh acidity, considerable complexity, and very good vigour, depth and harmony".

93/100 - Stephen Wong MW, The Real Review
