{"product_id":"wantirna-isabella-chardonnay-2025","title":"Wantirna 'Isabella' Chardonnay 2025","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe chardonnay vines are grown on an east facing, gentle slope allowing early morning and late afternoon sunshine. This aspect is perfect to grow top quality chardonnay grapes. Today the average age of the vines is over 40 years, which adds to the complexity of the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a classic Isabella with a textured roundness, lovely balancing acidity and a combination of New and Old World. Drinking beautifully already, but with plenty of ageing potential. - \u003cstrong\u003eMaryann Egan, Winemaker.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFrom 50–60-year-old vines. A complex bouquet of yellow plum, orange zest and fresh honeycomb. Beautifully balanced on the palate, which is vibrant and saline, with a fine bead of acidity that leaves you wanting another sip as soon as you've finished the first. A gorgeous wine that will reward cellaring for at least five to seven years. Only 85 dozen made. \u003cstrong\u003e97 points.

There’s a little cedar and spiced oak tucked neatly in, some aniseed and floral perfume, an oatmeal savoury touch, a fine chalky grip to texture, with a long and finish that combines citrus with ripe stone fruits. Lovely wine here, and while it’s good now, I’d likely give it another year in bottle for best results. \u003cstrong\u003e 94+ points.
