Yalumba, GEN, Organic, Chardonnay, South Australia, 2022
Pale lemon with an almost green highlight. Plenty of flinty and reductive notes with a little nougat, breadcrust, white and yellow stone fruit and grapefruit citrus. Rich and forward with juicy, fleshy stone fruit, butterscotch and a malty, mealy grounding. Finishes refreshingly tight and bracing. One for the lovers of a bigger style of Chardonnay.
