Description

Lethbridge's flagship chardonnay, capable of stopping you in your tracks.

Like his previous Chardonnay, this manages to hold a linear, chiselled framework while overdelivering on fleshy, primary fruit. It really is quite an achievement and I’m sure it’s to the envy of many other domestic Chardonnay producers. Saline edges, golden stone fruit, cashew, macademia and almond skin are just some of the flavours I pick up on here. It’s 5 years old but only just starting out on it journey to maturity. Drink over the next 5-10 years.

Review

Lethbridge's flagship chardonnay, capable of stopping you in your tracks. With fineness, concentration of fruit and judicious winemaking, this is one of Geelong's best expressions of the grape. Citrus to the fore on the bouquet, with grapefruit, lemon, white nectarine and almond meal notes. Fine lined throughout with a tantalising theme of bush herbs and lemon thyme. Bright, crystalline freshness to close.
