A resinous nose of truffle, glazed peach, peat, quince, hazelnut and salted almond. This would be hard to discern from classy Burgundy, despite my quest to discover regionality in Aussie Chardonnay! Meursault on the mind. No wonder given that it was crafted by Jean-Marie Fourrier, a Burgundian who champions batonnage when required, an approach long eschewed by Australian makers striving for greater tension. Deep and expansive, growing in volume with air. Soft in the context of Australian Chardonnay in a sense, with a raft of phenolics, maritime salinity and a volcanic pungency defining the structural kit. This sits beautifully in the mouth.
