Paringa Estate is one of the jewels of Victoria's Mornington Peninsula wine region, consistently making some of the nation's leading examples of Pinot Noir, Shiraz and Chardonnay.
This 2024 Paringa Estate 'Estate' Chardonnay is another complex, flavoursome and impeccably balanced example of Mornington Peninsula Chardonnay that will strengthen the reputation of this esteemed winery. The nose is complex and intriguing, with delicately nuanced aromas of citrus and white nectarine, with appealing sulphide and nutty barrel ferment notes. The wine has good palate weight, racy acid and excellent length.
"94 Points. A free wheeling, generous Chardonnay in the Paringa style, but underneath the sunny exterior there is an underlying structural power. Brings the scent of the beach with saline, sea spray notes and ripe peach, pear, nectarine and citrus - very summery and bright. A balanced palate, delightfully citrus and upfront in stone fruits with background lightly spiced, vanillin oak, quince and a quince skin savouriness awaits. Brisk acidity nicely controls the obvious richness and delivers one smart, enticing wine. $55. Drink: 2025 - 2033"- Jeni Port, Wine Pilot.
