Margaret River Chardonnay The Ridge 2018
5 Stars, 95/100 - Sam Kim
"Stylish and elegant, the splendid bouquet shows rockmelon, lemon zest, nougat and oatmeal characters. The palate displays excellent concentration and weight, superbly supported by creamy mouthfeel and bright acidity. Wonderfully composed and exquisitely expressed with a persistent refined finish. At its best: now to 2020 to 2026." Sam Kim, Wine Judge
Wow! Introducing a big mouthful of full flavoured Margaret River Chardonnay with quite a bit going on. Textural ripe peach, custard apple, nougat and baked pastry notes are to the fore, cleverly underscored with freshening grapefruit flavours and a classy vanillan and spiced oak finish. It's a lovely powerful, textural thing and represents outstanding value at this price.
