2021 Mulline Single Vineyard Sutherlands Creek Chardonnay, Geelong

Hand-picked fruit, whole-bunch pressed to French oak, 25% new. A fragrant, fresh and lively youngster with well-measured oak that lets the fruit sing. Grapefruit, lemon, nectarine and white peach fill the bouquet and the palate, flowing fine in structure and briskly across the tongue by crisp, bright acidity. A delight now but with a big future ahead. JP 13% alc. RRP $50 / Drink 2022–2029 / Mulline www.mulline.com
