James Suckling - 96pts
“Aromas of baked lemon, flint, hazelnut and lime zest. Medium-bodied with bright and driving acidity. The palate is energetic and fruity with an array of smoked citrus and apple fruit. Balanced and long. Textural at the finish. Drink or hold.” – James Suckling
The Real Review - 95pts
“Toasty-nutty oak and low-level reduction adds up to a complex and savoury bouquet, with hints of nougat. The wine is rich and full in the mouth, but also has some reserve and tension. A stylish and well-balanced wine of superior intensity and drive through the finish. Delicious.” – Huon Hooke
Q WINE - 95pts
“What a beauty! Oakridge has nailed another Chardonnay. From the Yarra Valley’s Woori Yallock district, this Henk vineyard is all class. Concentrated with charming depth, lovely lines of intrigue captivate. Lacy and rounded, that depth and focus can’t be missed. Barbecued nectarines, almonds, cashews, vanilla, there is more of a citrus presence here than the Hazeldene. A touch of flint tucks in behind too. Some tense grapefruit tightens the noose around the palate with a drive that brings the mouth to water. Sip slow and just embrace – another class act from Oakridge. Drink to eight years.” – Steve Leszczynski.
