2009 Red Claw Chardonnay Mornington Peninsula, Victoria $26

 

The second label to the highly acclaimed Yabby Lake range, this is a wine that’s both bright and intense in colour and flavour. On the palate, citrus and melon integrate with spicy oak creating a stylish wine with balanced acidity and texture.

‘Restrained wine chasing savoury complexity and succeeding; lemon, white nectarine and wet flint on the bouquet; lemony acidity plays a pivotal role on the palate providing line and drive, and giving way to nutty complexity introduced by the hand of the winemaker. Rating 92 – James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion Edition 2011
