Tasting Notes

A wine that showcases the class of Chardonnay from Margaret River from an exceptional vintage. Flavours of stone fruit, rockmelon & ripe pear drive the palate with layers of complexity providing the thumb print of the Evans & Tate house style. An element of wild fermentation on solids adds aromatics such as wild herbs, tropical fruits and toasty notes. The ~60% component of MLF and extended time spent maturing on yeast lees, contributes fresh toast and malty characters along with a lovely creamy, textural complexity.

Product Highlights

When it comes to great Australian Chardonnay, Evans & Tate knows a thing or two, having spent 50 years crafting liquid gold, year after year. Since planting their Wilyabrup vineyard in 1974, they've been drumming to their own beat of cool-climate winemaking, crafting wines with purity, balance, and unmistakable regional character. Under the guidance of Senior Winemaker Matt Byrne, the winery continues to produce trophy-winning wines that champion Margaret River’s world-class terroir.

A Margaret River Chardonnay under $25 is a rarity, and this one punches above its weight. Fruit-forward yet complex, it delivers stone fruit, ripe pear & rockmelon, with hints of wild herbs, toasted oak & creamy lees adding texture and depth. Cassandra Charlick (Winepilot) called it a “solid drop at an unbeatable price.”

Not much Magic

"Middle of the road chardonnay - something in the taste I didn't like. Oh well - I tried it with chicken in a creamy sauce. A bit heavy as an aperitif, not interesting enough for a fine main course. . ."

Good drop

"A decent chardonnay- somewhere between medium bodied and crisp and fuller-bodied and rounded. Got better on the 2nd night-half bottle left in fridge. Good value"

— Ross C. (5/5)
