Tolpuddle Vineyard Chardonnay 2025
AU$118, 13.0% alcohol, screwcap, Tasmania.

This edition of Tolpuddle Chardonnay is a classic in the making. It has three key features: unforced complexity, an impression of effortlessness, and outstanding length. It tastes of iron, grilled peach, lemon, tonic water and nougat, though there’s an underpinning of umami and a subtle flintiness in play too. It’s all quite exquisite. It’s all quite fabulous.

97 points – Campbell Mattinson.

Tolpuddle is a Mattinson 10-Star Winery.
