Curly Flat Chardonnay 2022

94 POINTS! - THE WINE FRONT

 

"This is quite slender, more slender than I usually associate with Curtly Flat, though it builds flesh and flavour as it breathes and it will no doubt continue to do so as it matures. It tastes of cedar and nectarine, grapefruit and green apple, custard powder and woodsmoke, with gentle herb-like notes littered throughout. The wine’s grapefruit notes really power on through the finish, which is a good sign, and everything feels well balanced and knitted. Tuck it away awhile and it’ll sing." - Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front

 

"Picked in the cool of the morning, Chardonnay from three distinct blocks were whole bunch pressed to tank with cloudy juice transferred to barrel the following day.  Indigenous yeasts dictated ferment in various formats ranging from 300 and 500 litre barrels.  From there barrels were stirred monthly until minimal sulphur was added in late Spring once malolactic ferment (MLF) was complete.   Our 2022 Chardonnay has gone through 100% MLF along with 28% new oak with minimal filtration before bottling.

Drinking beautifully now with 10+ years of cellaring potential." - Curly Flat
