Giaconda Wines Chardonnay Estate Vineyard 2015
White
Beechworth, Australia
8.0
WineSaint
Tightly wound and phenolic, showing white nectarine and crushed stone rather than the usual Giaconda opulence. The cooler vintage brings welcome tension. Angular and flinty where past years spread wide. Needs time for that austere grip to soften.
