Neal Martin
The 2025 Chardonnay is matured in 24% new French oak for nine months. This is nuanced on the nose, gaining intensity with white peach, almond and crushed stone scents, the oak neatly integrated and, overall, nicely focused. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, bright and citrus-fresh with hints of marmalade and blood orange. There is just the right amount of bitterness that lends edge and sapidity on the finish. This is a strong Chardonnay from winemaker Emul Ross and it will mature in bottle too. 92 points
