Note di degustazione
The Lismore 2024 Greyton Estate Reserve Chardonnay opens with yellow fruits, waxy melon and a hint of tangerine, unfolding across a medium- to full-bodied frame. The palate is broad and textural with a gentle richness, finishing with a citrus-driven close. There is width without excess, allowing fruit clarity to shine through layered structure. The shale soils and cool mountain climate of Greyton contribute tension and aromatic precision to the estate’s Chardonnay plantings.

The 2024 Chardonnay Reserve comes from dry-farmed vines on steep slopes that tend to produce small bunches, matured in 500-litre oak barrels, 30% new. If you find better aromatics on a Cape Chardonnay in 2024 than this, then do let me know (usual address). Stunning delineation, real depth and mineralité, blossoming with aeration. The palate is very well defined, nicely poised with tangerine, white peach and light nectarine scents. Very poised and very sustained, this is the kind of Chardonnay to pour for your best friends.
