Incredible intensity on the nose with aromas of white peach and grapefruit with a little muted butterscotch in the background. The palate is powerful and drives with urgency through to a remarkably long finish. The oak is neatly interlaced, and the fresh acidity adds another dimension with its savoury chalky character.

It is beguiling, precise and elegant. All that is backed up by excellent fruit, integrated oak, a laser-light show of acidity with some creamy-nutty lees shimmying across the palate. And the finish – wow! Lingers long. Bravo.

This has everything that you could ask for in a chardonnay, and then some. Yet somehow, it manages to present as shy and restrained at the same time. A chameleon wine that has the flexibility to be enjoyed on its own, or with a variety of different foods. Winemaking notes add impact in a very positive way.\"\u003cstrong\u003e  \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eBarry Weinman, Fine Wine Club - 97 points \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"\u003cspan\u003ePierro Chardonnay be what Pierro Chardonnay be. But there’s a smidgen more finesse in this year’s release and, combined with Pierre’s trademark fruit power, the effect is quite sensational. Pierro is one of the original (as in, it was the first) close-planted blocks in Margaret River, at 6000 vines per hectare.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePower up front; finesse through the finish. This makes well and truly sure that it has your attention and then it shows that it has both depth, and style. Pears, yellow peaches, grilled nuts and a creamy, smoky, nougat character. There’s an element of quartz to this wine, or of something stony, and it’s a part of its glory. This is a noted wine in noteworthy form. It finishes long.
