Tolpuddle Chardonnay 2014
Taut and steely, this complex young chardonnay has a delicate, restrained bouquet of white peach, grapefruit, fresh vanilla oak backed by nuances of cloves, cinnamon and lime juice. ItÕs long and elegant, with a fine, pithy palate whose fresh, translucent grapefruit, lemon rind and melon flavours have a crystalline aspect. Underpinned by a fine chalkiness, it finishes with freshness, length and a lingering mineral note. Very stylish and drinkable.

Tolpuddle
Tolpuddle was planted in 1988. It's a small vineyard in the Coal River Valley in Tasmania, a region with limitless possibilities. Planted to pinot noir and chardonnay, it was purchased in early 2011 by the team that owns Shaw & Smith in the Adelaide Hills. From my perspective, the wines have shown a steady development and improvement as the new owners have come to understand the site and its potential. While it has collected a number of significant awards, I firmly believe that Tolpuddle's best days lie ahead.
