TN: Ashbrook Estate Chardonnay 2023

Post by Waiters Friend »

G'day

I last tasted this wine over a year ago, and this was the tasting note then:

The nose shows lots of ripe peaches and nectarines, along with vanilla, cashew, tinned pineapple, and just a hint of citrus. The palate is juicy and full of ripe tropical and stone fruits, with the oak playing a supporting role, and again just a touch of citrus. Just the right amount of everything in this wine.

Not much has changed, although the colour has deepened. Perhaps a little less lemon and pineapple, and more cashew on the nose. Acid is freshening without being sharp or tart, and the wine has good length. This is one of the better vintages of what is a consistently good wine.

Cheers
Allan
