Fighting Gully Road Beechworth Chardonnay 2022
Fighting Gully Road Beechworth Chardonnay 2022
The 2022 Chardonnay from Fighting Gully Road is a premium quality Chardonnay with an outstanding history from the renowned Beechworth wine region.
Cool climate Chardonnay characters prevail with grapefruit, melon, white stone fruit, mineral and a hint of struck match. The palate shows richness despite the lack of malolactic fermentation, principally from the vines now over 40 years of age.
This Chardonnay's vintage history consistently receives gold medal awards from James Halliday and this vintagehas just gained another Gold!
Rated 95 Gold - James Halliday Wine Companion:
Utterly delicious and, yet, so serious in intent and presence. Friendly, fragrant in lemon blossom, nectarine, white peach, ruby grapefruit, nougat and flint. Seamless in presentation, ripe in fruit quality and nicely weighted oak with brulée custard notes. It brings Beechworth energy and fresh acidity to the fore – juicy and delicious. Quietly complex, too.
