Score 95/100 · Drink 2022-2032, Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, Mar 2022

Hard day at the office? Kids sapping your will to live? Drink the 2020 Chardonnay Block 2 – there's no way you won't feel energized after a glass of this. This is a wine that knows where it's going, with banging acidity and low pH providing the horsepower. It focuses on purity and clarity; while there are barrels involved in its production, there's no new oak. Despite its punch, lees aging (11 months gross) has added succulence through the midpalate as well as almond-meal-like flavors. The finish is vibrant, pure and clean, with nectarine, citrus and subtle nutty characters lingering long.

Restrained nose. Very marked acidity. Very embryonic and not as much fun at this stage as the Bannockburn bottling. Is this following the Australian trend towards austerity in Chardonnay? (JR)
