91/100 with the following review:
oh wow, nice! Silvery lemon coloured. Elements of grapefruit, lemon zest, white flowers and a hint of lemongrass. Flavours show green apples, white grapefruit, lip smacking and mouthwatering. Hints of sugar snap peas. Vivacious acidity, with a light body and finish. It’s quite crisp, the oak is so subtle that it could pass as an unoaked version. Pair with summer salads and white fish. 91 points - tasted July 2019

A great offering from one of my fave Aussie producers. The Filius Chardonnay is Chablis-like, with lots of unripe stone fruit, lemon, lime, and green apple. The $27 price tag is not steep considering what you get. 92 Points.

Beautifully integrated Margaret River Chardonnay. Bright platinum sheen, watery rim. Well balanced medium integrated alcohol, medium plus body, with fresh, clean, crisp mouthfeel. Saline minerality, green apple, savoury, blanched almond on the palate. Pairs well oysters Rockefeller, sushi or roast chicken. Easy to enjoy without food as well. Tasted 2017 vintage in March 2018. 92 points @bespoketastings

A yummy steely glorious Chardonnay. I love acidity and this Margaret River Chardonnay brings it! Aromas showcase fresh orchard fruit and lime zest while the palate speaks scrumptious zesty citrus and layered saline minerality notes. An amazing pair with oysters. Tasted March 2018 by @sommsosa.

88/100 with the following review:
Subtle amd soft Chardonnay that hots all the points for hot(ish) climate style. Understated, but toasty and persistent. This wine was tasted in 2018, which makes this very young.
Pale lemon green colour.
Soft aromas of apple, pear, lemon, butter, and devon cream.
The flavours are soft and fruity. Some delicate peach and nectarine. Aple and pear, with some butter on the finish. Easy to appreciate.
Put it with a cobb salad or some lake trout.

Very nice! Bright and refreshing. Clean notes of citrus and green apple on the nose. Bright fruit carries through on the palate as well. Acidity is bright and balanced and extends the finish. Crisp and very tasty. Enjoy with white fish, shrimp, or scallops.

Crisp green apple and tropical fruit on the nose with lemon, apple and some pineapple on the palate. Crisp acidity throughout. Pair with creamy pasta or roasted chicken. Tasted March 2018.

The climate of Margaret River in Australia is maritime influenced. This has the affect of tempering the ripeness of the grapes, the result seen in this Chardonnay from Vasse Felix. A clean nose of green apple and pineapple. Lemon, grapefruit and vanilla flavours but not oaky at all. Fresh acidity and long citrus finish. Tasted March 11, 2018

Coming from Margaret River, a more cool region in Australia. It tasted like a good Chablis. Bright lemon-cirtrus on the nose. Clean and bright acidity on the palate
