Mattinson review of Cat & Frank Chardonnay 2024.

Cat & Frank Chardonnay 2024
$30, 13% alcohol, screwcap, Yarra Valley.

Top class chardonnay usually costs a lot more than $30. This is a top class chardonnay, from the elite Upper Yarra sub-region of the Yarra Valley no less, with penetrating fruit flavours, almond notes, green olives and citrus, and the resultant length through the finish that you rarely see at this price level. It’s an excellent wine now but it will cellar well too. In short, this wine is an ultra easy Yes. 94 points.

When you pick up a wine book and see thousands of top-scoring wines, it’s hard to know which wine to choose. Mattinson guides you through this maze, giving you an honest view of the best Australian wines, the best wine stories, the best wine producers, the best value wines and simply, the best tasting wines. Importantly, Mattinson will tell you about the top-rated wines and also about the underrated wines. In short, Mattinson knows Australian wines inside and out.

Mattinson has been a photo-journalist since 1987. For the past 25 years he’s been a voice that you can trust when you’re looking for the best wines. He’s the only Australian to have won the Australian Wine Communicator of the Year Award more than once. He’s a past winner of a Louis Roederer International Wine Media Award, and is the author of the award-winning book The Wine Hunter. He’s not afraid to put a score beside a wine. But what he’d rather do, is tell you the wine’s story.
