Natalie's Score: 92/100

An appealing chardonnay from this very good vintage. The aromas open with a citrussy butterscotch and quince paste combination. The light bodied palate is loaded with crunchy melon and citrus fruit laced together with a fine juicy acidity and neat use of oak. Has a lively minerality to lift. Ideal drinking in the shorter term [through 2029]. (Ray Jordan,rayjordanwine.com.au,undated) MINE: 2023 Ringbolt Chardonnay blends citrus-butterscotch and quince paste aromas with crunchy melon and lively acidity, framed by judicious oak and saline lift. Try it with herb-crusted pork chops or white-bean cassoulet. NEW: Margaret River sits between two oceans, and the cooling influence shows in this Chardonnay's precision. Golden apple and toasted almond lead the way, a soft orchard-fruit sweetness lingering after. It's round yet taut in the mouth, judicious oak keeping it from feeling heavy. Try it with fried calamari or pan-fried scallops.

Chardonnay food pairings: fried calamari, roasted chicken, pan fried scallops with bacon.
