Knee Deep Birdhouse Chardonnay 2022, Margaret River
Pale golden lemon. Peach, honeydew, melon and stone fruit, then ginger, orange blossom, spice and toasty oak.
Medium-bodied and rounded. Generous citrus and white stone fruit through a soft frame, lemon curd, spice and a buttery, nutty mid-palate. Nine months in French oak, a sliver of it new, with lees stirring for cream without smothering the fruit. Fresh acid, mineral, zesty finish.
Vino Masters Score: 95/100 ★★★★★ Delightful flavours including lemon curd, cream, mineral.
