2013 Under & Over Tumbarumba Chardonnay

imageProbably the highest quality Chardonnay under the fifteen dollar mark these days and very consistent.

Wheaty lees work is spot on this year. The flavours are pretty much the same, if perhaps slightly fuller. More grapefruit to go along with the nectarine and lemon I’ve come to expect. A light shawl of roughly hewn oak contributes to the mouthfeel and the phenolics. Decent length. Difficult to say how they manage to produce such a serious wine at this price point. 89

    Hey Jeremy, long-time listener, first-time caller here. I’ve been reading and admiring the blog for some time and will continue to do so. I just wanted to double-check that you’re OK with my adding a link to the blogroll on my relatively young site. I hope so. Keep up the good work.

  2. Hi Ed – thanks for the kind words and thank you for reading. No problems whatsoever re adding a link.

    Cheers
