Wine Critic Reviews
For whatever reason, this just has the edge compared with its two other chardonnay siblings, which are both excellent. This just seems more high-toned, flinty, racy and linear. Yet it has texture, depth and super length. All the flavours come together seamlessly, the oak a mere seasoning, and moreish acidity ensures this is delicious now and will age well.

The 2022 Calgardup Brook Vineyard Chardonnay is tight and fine; it curls in tendrils through the long finish and litters the palate with dehydrated lemon peel, clove buds, white pepper, freshly grated nutmeg, brine and saltbush. It is coastal and fresh, mineral and fine. The vineyard is north-facing and planted on coastal limestone loam, established in 1997. I love the precision and delicacy of this wine. While others may overtake it for my preference in the future, within this release, this is one of the top wines for 2022. 12.8% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.

The shapely and immaculate 2022 Chardonnay Calgardup Brook Vineyard initially teases with aromas of melon sorbet topped with crushed nuts lined with green apples and toasty oak. Excellent texture and volume of flavor follow, but it is still wrapped very tight in its shell. The overall impression, though, is seamless, and I have no doubt it will build impressively in bottle.
