For value and for quality you could ask for little more. It’s squeaky with flavour, of the peach and citrus and grapefruit kind, with pear, brine and roasted nut characters also present - but a long way from being dangerous. It sounds boring - it’s not – but cohesion and balance are the heroes here. It’s a wine of tension, flavour, complexity and spread, and of a bit extra too, but none of these assets is pushed too hard. Absolutely Yes on this one.\"- Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Giant Steps","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle","offer_id":58555843838112,"sku":"$39.90","price":39.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 Bottles","offer_id":58555843870880,"sku":"$39.90","price":239.4,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 Bottles","offer_id":58555843903648,"sku":"$39.90","price":478.8,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0414\/3464\/4640\/files\/Giant_Steps_Yarra_Valley_Chardonnay_2024_600_95_Points.png?v=1750299440","url":"https:\/\/auscellardoor.com.au\/products\/giant-steps-yarra-chardonnay-2025","provider":"AusCellardoor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
