Hay, oysters, saltbush and tonic notes thread through stonefruit, cream, nougat and steel. We’re looking at a wine in mid-flight; it hasn’t yet landed and\/or opened its doors to the world. It will be beautiful when it does. There’s a lot of savoury complexity going on here. A lot of X factor.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Best Cellars Sydney","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46574896480509,"sku":"BANSRHCHD24","price":102.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0357\/6017\/7285\/files\/SRH.jpg?v=1756102130"},{"product_id":"bannockburn-chardonnay-2025","title":"Bannockburn Chardonnay 2025","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion: \u003c\/strong\u003eGeelong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrapes: \u003c\/strong\u003eChardonnay\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFirst Glance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stonefruit, Spices, Grapefruit, Wet Stones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAcclaim: \u003c\/strong\u003e96pts\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Review:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCampbell Mattinson, The Wine Front - 96pts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"\u003cspan data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\"\u003eThere are yellow stone fruits characters here, and an array of sweet spice notes, but it’s the flesh, the rush and the juice of grapefruit and ripe pear flavours that both dominate and seduce. This wine really does make you dive quickly in for more. There’s a subtle smokiness, some tonic and mineral-like notes, and an especially noticeable (extra) linger to the finish. This is one of those wines where the acidity itself feels flushed with flavour. The aftertaste then adds some pebble-stone characters, just because it can.

I’m not even sure that’s a word. This is a particularly earthen Pinot Noir with root vegetable characters running through black cherry, chicory, woodsmoke and fistfuls of roasted spices. I’m tempted to call this Pinot Noir for grown-ups but that’s a silly phrase so I’ll refrain. We get beautiful, fine-meshed, grapey tannin here, and sinewy characters, and a genuine, savoury push of flavour through the finish.

It’s grown on a 1.4 acre block planted in 2014. Absolutely pitch perfect. I mean, come on. It’s so bright and yet, at the same time, so well fruited; it has freshness and substance and luminance in equal and harmonious measure. Cherry-berry flavours, some blueberry, some blood orange and ferrous notes, and intricate stitchings of spice. Trace elements of herbs and smoked, roasted meats. A bit of gloss but a liveliness at the same time.
