[SOLD-OUT] Luna Eclipse Chardonnay 2020

 

"Aromas of brazil nut butter, cashew, ripe yellow peach and baked apple. Layers of spice with vanilla and new wood scents add complexity and depth. Lovely weight and texture on the palate with flavours of sweet citrus and apple, then toasty peach and nutty oak qualities from brazil nut to new wood and vanilla. A fine wood tannins texture with a youthful acid line add contrast and mouthfeel." - Cameron Douglas

 

"Bright, fresh, intense, high-energy chardonnay with grapefruit, citrus, white peach, oyster-shell and subtle spicy oak flavours supported by tangy, mouth-watering acidity." - Bob Campbell

 

"Complex and engaging, the wine shows apricot, fig, nougat and roasted hazelnut aromas with a hint of flinty overtone. The concentrated palate offers terrific depth and richness, while remaining structured and refined. Expansive and prolonged with layers of fine texture and savoury flavours." - Wine Orbit

 

"Peach, cashew, butter and cinnamon oak, a flicker of aniseed and peppermint here too, which ads a little freshness. Glossy, buttery, with juicy grapefruit acidity, silky gloss with flinty and firm texture, almost a gooseberry tang, something of a cool ‘minerally’ feel here too, and a nutty buttery finish that also offers lemon zest and citrus freshness. Bold style, but very good." - Gary Walsh, Wine Front

 

"Clear and bright appearance with a shimmering pale gold colour. No mistaking the cool climate chardonnay vibe; White fleshed peach & grapefruit with sea spray like flinty minerality. Some nice, in tune oaky bass notes add some subtle volume. Plenty to sniff and geek out about if so inclined. Superfine to taste! Love the powdery texture, a trimmed and toned package, all very nervy and energetic, crackling with tension. A real elegant mover though, with delicious citrus and peach flavours in the curl of the finish. So delicious and drinkable right now but will absolutely go the distance in the cellar if that is what is desired." - Luna
