Soumah of the Yarra Valley Hexham Chardonnay, Yarra Valley

A hugely sophisticated Chardonnay reflecting this producer's delicate control of Australian joy harnessed with Burgundian restraint.

 A finely-grained, complex nose of preserved lemons, struck match and fennel. The palate is rich with toasted hazelnuts, further fennel over comice pear skin with a fine salinity. Poised, fine and delicious. So delicious. Sorry.
