Montalto Single Vineyard 'Tuerong' Chardonnay 2023

"Quartz colour with green hues. A core of white peach and honeydew fruit with lemon butter, savoury chicken stock and a curious note of Fruit Tingles.  This is a wine of breadth, weight and generosity. It feels glossy and polished with juicy white peach fruit yet lively with zippy lemon acidity. There’s a slate-like mineral feel and chewy mid-palate structure."

Simon Black, Chief Winemaker.

REVIEWS

"There’s plenty of sunshine in this chardonnay but then too it’s svelte and complex. It drives straight into the ‘fundamentally delicious’ category. It tastes of white peach and grapefruit, nashi pear and nougat, with cedarwood and a character that I would describe as “lolly dust”, for want of a better description. It’s a lively wine, and a well balanced one, but mostly it’s flavoursome and satiny.”

Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front.

"This is one of those, "Where have you been all my life," moments. An epic single vineyard release of the Tuerong Chardonnay from Montalto awaits… Such a delight to drink, I made sure I saw this bottle out over a few days.Just brilliant!” Score 96/100.
