2022 Rocket Chardonnay

2022 was an exceptional vintage delivering Chardonnay with great depth whilst retaining precise acidity. The mild conditions brought flavour development early allowing us to pick with excellent natural acidity. Yields were in balance and gave rise to some ripe stone fruits characters, white flowers, complex citrus characters and a fine mineral finish.

“To get a chardonnay with such powerful and precise flavours is due to a combination of a great vineyard that’s perfectly tended, with sensibly grown grapes and sensitive winemaking. It’s a great, great wine,” National Wine Show of Australia chair of judges Matt Harrop

"Somewhere between the Jura and the nether of the New World, this is an exceptional if not highly stylised, mid-weighted chardonnay... I often prefer the Tilbury bottling, but not in this instance."- Ned Goodwin MW (jamessuckling.com)

96 Points "Lots going on here. Brilliant texture too... Kaleidoscopic in feel. Excellent mod-Aus chardy."- Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)
