Giaconda Chardonnay 2022 is a single-vineyard, cool-climate Chardonnay from Beechworth, Victoria.
- The wine emphasizes precision, balance, and limestone-like mineral lift, with bright acidity and layered texture.
- Aromas lean citrus and stone fruit with subtle floral notes; the palate delivers citrus, white peach, and pear with restrained oak and lees influence that adds complexity without weight.
- Food-friendly and cellar-worthy; pairs well with seafood, poultry, and herbaceous salads. Best enjoyed in its youth but has aging potential of several years.
Tasting notes
- Aroma: lemon zest, white peach, green apple, pear, subtle almond/taffy, and a touch of flint/mineral.
- Palate: dry, medium-bodied, with brisk acidity; flavors mirror the nose—citrus, stone fruit, and mineral notes; nuanced oak/lees texture integrates rather than dominates.
- Finish: long, crisp, mineral-driven with lingering citrus and stone fruit.
