I have to say I am stoked...., literally stoked to have my next taste of this multi dimensional wine that lifts the soul and separates to ordinary form the sublime. Chardonnay should simply be this good and be this good all the time! Tasmania is at the for front of not only cool climate excellence in the chardonnay stakes, But, simply has the eye on producing quality.
I recommend you dig a little deeper and see the difference exceptional Chardonnay hand crafted and sent to market with TLC is!

Awards and Accolades
2015 Vintage: 94 Points - James Halliday, Wine Companion "Fermented in French oak, lees-stirred. A very intense bouquet and palate with pink grapefruit to the fore and figgy/creamy/nutty notes to the rear. Interesting wine, probably best over the next few years."
2015 Vintage: 92 Points - Campbell Mattinson, The WIne Front "Great drinking. Straight up. Hits the deck with grapefruit, green apple, white pear whiffs and sips. Touch creamy in the palate but with a cool thrust of acidity that keeps the palate mouthwatering and fresh. Touch of flint in bouquet and palate too for interest. It leaps out of the glass and says ‘touch of class’ and ‘drink me’ at the same time. Yes thanks."
From the Winery
Beautiful cool climate Chardonnay in a soft easy drinking style. This wine displays the delightful fresh tropical flavours that the Chardonnay variety develops in our vineyard site. On first introduction to this wine you will find an intense aroma of pineapple, guava with a touch of apricot. Golden Chardonnay fruit from the Louis vineyard is cool fermented in tanks followed by extended lees contact prior to bottling. By not utilising the Burgundy technique of fermentation in oak casks this wine highlights the pure Chardonnay aromas and flavours of stone, citrus and melon fruits. The mouth-filling, smooth, fruit-salad flavours are harmoniously balanced by a refreshing crisp long finish.
