Tyrrell's 'Vat 47' Chardonnay 2023

This is going to be a very good Vat 47. I’m sure of that. Gets about 10% new oak. This wine is well represented on wine lists in NSW, and despite having to pay a premium, I often find myself ordering a bottle. 

A little struck match, green pear and apple, nougat/almond, lime zest, spice. White peach in with light citrus flavour, fine grip, lovely even flow, fine chalky grip, long with a little green olive and lemon peel cinch of bitterness. Such energy here, and it’s tight too. It’s a classic Vat 47, and hence, give it a few years in bottle before drinking. Terrific. 96 Pts, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
