Mornington Peninsula Estate Chardonnay 2005

Of around 15 or so wines tasted over the last weekend on the Mornington Peninsula Victoria, this was the standout. Mid Gold at 12 years of age. Funky leesy aromas with notes of almond meal, grilled nuts in general. On the palate stone fruit, white peach and great length and intensity. Would give most Premier Crus and the odd Grand Cru a run for their money. Tried to buy a dozen but ended up this was their last bottle at the winery. 🙁 — 8 years ago

Gamay 2015

Slightly conflicted because this is a very well made wine, but doesn't have that freshness and minerality that I really wanted. Cherries, raspberries, hint of clove, and some vanilla from the new oak. Probably a little whole bunch and semi carbonic too. Would probably rate it even higher if I could get over my own cru Beaujolais expectations 👍🏻 — 8 years ago
