The 2025Murdoch Hill Chardonnay showcases bright and focused fruit flavors, with notes of citrus, green apple, and zesty grapefruit. Its vibrant acidity and precise structure create a refreshing and elegant palate, reflecting the cool climate of Adelaide Hills. Careful barrel fermentation and lees work add layers of complexity, giving the wine subtle depth and finesse. With a fine acid line and a balanced, refreshing finish, this Chardonnay is both vibrant and refined, perfect for enjoying now or cellaring for additional complexity. The Wine Advocate 93 pointsThe 2025 Chardonnay is saline and pure, showing none of the seductive reduction that is present in the top cuvées, though I must say, I like the fact that there is stylistic diversity within the one portfolio. This is delicate and unfettered, showing an elegance and limpidity that I find most attractive. It is warmly recommended. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
