$70, 12.3% alcohol, DIAM cork, Adelaide Hills.

Gentle Folk has a habit of producing exquisite wines and this is another example. Indeed this is a chardonnay with more than its fair share of spark. It tastes of pears, creams, nuts, florals and wax, the aftertaste then edged in quartz. It’s alive with chardonnay fruit flavour, it’s got a real heartbeat there, but the walls of its veins are savoury. The drinkability of this wine is off the charts. 94 points.
