International Wine Report94 pts

The Robert's Road Vineyard Chardonnay from Westwood is fantastic in 2022. It begins with an inviting bouquet of tangerine, key lime pie, quince, tropical fruits, straw, toasted brioche, crushed stone and white flower.. On the palate this is full-bodied chardonnay with a delicious creamy texture and fantastic natural acidity that adds balance to this wine. Fantastic on release, but there is no doubt that this will gain complexity with a few years of bottle age, and can last over a decade in the cellar.
