Pike and Joyce Sirocco Chardonnay 2021
$32.00
Flavoursome, generous, complex and textural, with something of an Old World aspect in terms of some savoury and oxidative development. Its punchy expression of grapefruit, melon and lemon is backed by creamy vanilla oak plus suggestions of hazelnut, vanilla custard and mineral, with just a hint of spice.

Winery
Pike and Joyce
This joint venture between Pikes Wines (Clare Valley) and Joyson Orchards (Lenswood) in the Adelaide Hills is responsible for a typically well made and varietally correct collection of elegant cool climate wines. The usually shapely and mineral Chardonnay is usually the flag bearer amongst a fine, pristine collection of white wines, each of which delivers beautiful varietal purity. In particular, the Sauvignon Blanc is a spotless of frequently mineral wine - poles apart from what most Marlborough expressions deliver. The reds are steadily improving, led by some very delicious pinots with pleasing textural and savoury qualities.
