Written Notes

Free Run Chardonnay 2023 ($26) – From the Great Southern region in Western Australia, the fruit received a gentle destemming before pressing into 225-litre Burgundian barrels with fermentation by wild yeasts. No malo. 

A lovely pale lemon/straw colour. This is a most elegant style of Chardonnay. There is a very small influence of oak evident with hints of nutmeg. Notes of citrus, grapefruit and melon. Well structured, finely crafted, this is a leaner style, yet there is no lack of flavour, with very good length. Seriously good value. Enjoy over the next five to six years. 93.
