Apsley Gorge Chardonnay 2024The 2024 Chardonnay is tightly coiled and deeply intense. The nose is precise, almost understated, but the palate bursts open with layers of ripe citrus, stone fruit, struck flint, and a touch of creamy oak. Theres richness, yes, but its harnessed by line and length rather than weight. The texture is superb bright, chalky, and energetic with the kind of balance that promises graceful ageing over the next decade.
