Amour Chardonnay 2023

 

These Amour wines have a habit of rewarding patience. A little extra time in bottle seems to unlock another gear and this Chardonnay is a perfect example. 

From a tiny operator producing just 28 barrels across Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Shiraz, this is a wine punching well above its weight. Old-school lemonade and lemon curd aromas set the tone before barbecued peach arrives with a lip-smacking caramelised edge. Yellow-fleshed grapefruit brings freshness and energy, while nougat, toasted cashews and brioche add layers of complexity. The palate is positioned in cruise mode by a creamy drive that builds beautifully through the middle. Expressive fruit, a tonic-like texture, measured oak and harmonious acidity work seamlessly together, delivering a wine that is both immediately satisfying and quietly sophisticated. Should you have time on your side, this will age well too. But let's cut to the chase: it's a bloody brilliant Chardonnay.
