2024 Toolangi Vineyard F Block Chardonnay

98 POINTS

Philip Rich - Halliday Wine Companion

Sourced entirely from the '01-planted, very protected 0.4ha F Block. 100% mlf with no lees stirring. A stunning chardonnay. Aromas of stone fruits, ripe white pear, honeysuckle and grilled cashew together with a little gunflint. This all comes together on the powerful, saline, textured and taut palate. The flavours persists long after you've tasted this, while the acidity is perfectly integrated into the wine, ensuring this will age superbly.

Gary Walsh - The Wine Front

Gingin clone on own roots, from Dixons Creek, planted in 2001. Gets 70 percent malo, and 25% new oak. White nectarine, pastry dough, cinnamon, white flowers, salted pistachios, a little struck match. It’s a rich wine and kind of unctuous, a real melt-in-the-mouth affair, creamy oatmeal with cinnamon,  juicy stone fruit and green pear, acidity has a ripe grapefruit character, there’s powdery texture, and it finishes long and saline.  Very good wine. A lot of texture and flavour here.
