{"product_id":"2024-tolpuddle-vineyard-chardonnay","title":"2024 Tolpuddle Vineyard Chardonnay","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlongside the Pinot Noir, Tolpuddle’s Chardonnay has carved out a place as one of the most coveted white wines in the country. From its windswept site in the Coal River Valley, yields are naturally low – thanks in part to the notorious “hen and chicken” bunches and the relentless valley winds – but what fruit remains is intensely concentrated and characterful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 release is every bit as compelling as you’d expect. Citrus and white peach sit at the core, layered with struck match, almond meal and a fine saline edge that speaks directly of its site. The palate is taut and driving, framed by crystalline acidity, yet there’s a creamy, flowing texture that gives the wine its quiet power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is Chardonnay that balances precision with depth – made to cellar but irresistible in its youth. Every vintage, Tolpuddle reminds us why Tasmania now sits at the forefront of Australia’s cool-climate Chardonnay story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e98 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Ooh-boy the Tolpuddle Chardonnay is in a good place. I guess you could call this vintage a 'classic'. A little more restraint and line than the '23; a little more filigree and nuance, those flinty\/struck-match tones a little further back in the mix and woven through the wine in an intricate pattern... It's a stunner.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Dave Brookes (Halliday Wine Companion)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e98 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Wow. This sits on the edge of reduction, expressing both power and minerality with aromas of struck match, lemon confit, crushed stones, sweet spices, grapefruit and apple blossoms. The palate is highly strung with striking acidity, balanced by a generous, rounded yet restrained mouthfeel. You could easily be in one of the great Climats of Burgundy. Truly excellent from one of Australia’s most celebrated producers. Drink or hold.\"\u003cbr\u003e- James Suckling\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Tolpuddle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56141754368372,"sku":"pis1789957203354","price":52.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/5613\/8100\/files\/2024-tolpuddle-vineyard-chardonnay_1.png?v=1789957205","url":"https:\/\/petcameramon.shop\/products\/2024-tolpuddle-vineyard-chardonnay","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
