2022 Harewood Estate Reserve Chardonnay

6 bottles

In stock.

The Reserve Chardonnay fruit is estate grown in the Denmark subregion of the Great Southern in Western Australia. Juice from handpicked and whole bunch pressed fruit is barrel fermented in a mixture of new and second use French oak barriques. Savoury and textural intensity is introduced through the use of selected & wild yeasts, and part maturation on lees with secondary malolactic fermentation. The wine spends 11 months in barrel before minimal fining and bottling. Pale golden yellow colour. A highly complex, perfumed nose of citrus and fresh nectarines is balanced by spicy French oak and a richer savoury character. Palate initially shows grapefruit, then ripe stone fruits. A more savoury mid palate finishes with lingering citrus acidity balanced by vanillin French oak. This wine has perfect balance between fruit flavour, texture and length. Drinks well on release, this Reserve Chardonnay will show even more character after 1-2 years, or cellar mid-term in good conditions.

96 pts - Kim Brebach (BWU20)

This is one of the best Chardonnays I’ve seen in the last 12 months. Rich and ripe white stonefruits and cashews, toasty French oak that’s polished and fully integrated. Lees stirring and malolactic fermentation have added baking spices and a creamy texture. 96 points. Brilliant wine. BUY. The oak barriques used for this wine are water-bent, the winery tells us. Water bending uses very hot water as the heat source rather than a low-temperature fire.

94 pts - Ken Gargett (Wine Pilot)

Whole bunch pressing, a range of yeasts including wild yeasts, barrel fermentation in a combination of new and older French oak barriques, malolactic fermentation and ten months maturation in French barrels. Deep straw in colour, this is a finely crafted Chardonnay. We have notes of lemon curd, spices, peaches, jasmine, lemongrass and a touch of fine oak integration. The wine has balance, a fine line of citrussy acidity, excellent length and a lingering finish. Enjoy this for at least the next four to eight years.
