Shaw + Smith Lenswood Chardonnay 2018

“From a propitiously situated vineyard at 500m, this plays a ‘cool handed Luke’ of reductive gun flint tension, a faint whiff of apricot and nectarine, alongside a rivet of creamed cashew and nougat. Tight and febrile of energy, yet far from severe. This is a streamlined Chardonnay of the finest pedigree. Drink 2028.” 96 Points. Ned Goodwin, 2021 James Halliday Wine Companion.
