Best Value Australian Chardonnay: The Past 12 Months

This list has been created by pure numbers. As in the score I gave it, calculated against its asking price. Every time I score a chardonnay on this site at 94 points or higher, I add the Best Australian Chardonnay tag. I took all the wines that have been awarded this tag, over the past 12 months, and ran them through a price-per-point calculator. This list, it’s important to note, is not the same as the Best Australian Chardonnay list itself, which does not factor in price. The list below has the price-per-point or value filter applied.

This list ranks, by a pure calculation, what chardonnay quality costs. Because it’s a straight calculation; there are surprises.

This list will be regularly updated. Updated August 2026.
