Lovers of top class Aussie Chardonnay would be well aware of Voyager Estate's place among the top echelon of Australian Chardonnay. The 2020 Voyager Estate Chardonnay is another top-line example displaying complexity, texture and restraint.
The first Certified Organic release of Voyager Estate Chardonnay, the 2020 Voyager Estate Chardonnay offers a wonderful purity of fruit and is perfectly countered by a savoury and mineral edge. This is a classic Margaret River Chardonnay that while superbly now, will reward in the years to come.
"94 Points. A combination of 7 vineyard blocks, utilising clones 95, 96, 76 and Gingin. All fermented wild in French oak (36% new). Some parcels (Dijon clones) underwent mlf to mitigate the acidity. Matured for 9 months in barrique, regular bâtonnage. The 2020 vintage in Margaret River has produced a tranche of effortless wines; powerful, ripe and with bright acidity. As ever, this is classy to the max - creamy, taut, restrained, nutty and super-fresh; all of it wrapped in a web of saline acidity and glossy phenolics. 14% alc. $50. Drink by: 2032. Screwcap."- Erin Larkin, winecompanion.com.au.
