2019 Circe, Hillcrest Road Chardonnay, Mornington Peninsula, Australia

Description

Exceptionally elegant and pure, the nose of the 2019 Hillcrest Road Chardonnay is all about fresh lemons and river stones with a fine, mineral, savoury top note. The palate is so fresh and cleansing with that pebble stone minerality and a delicate framework of racy acidity coming through. The wine is perfectly balanced yet also so vibrant and full of energy. This has a lovely, lipsmacking finish which leave the palate humming. Absolutely delicious now but could also be enjoyed until 2026.

Critics reviews

James Suckling 94/100

This has some very attractive lemon, grapefruit and peach aromas with a flinty undertone, too. The palate has a taut, flavorful delivery of lemon, peach and grapefruit, with some vivid acidity pinning the finish into place.
