Mattinson review of Coppabella The Crest Chardonnay 2022.

Coppabella The Crest Chardonnay 2022
$45, 12.5% alcohol, screwcap, Tumbarumba.

Grapefruit, ripe peach, pear and a waxy, creamy character combine to great effect here. Indeed if you want to experience a fresh-but-velvety chardonnay, this is the wine for you. It hits up with a good amount of flavour but it feels as though the flavour builds as it passes through your mouth, the finish then sealing the deal emphatically. Coppabella and chardonnay are a match made in heaven. The mouthfeel of this wine. The flavour. It’s beautiful. 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.
