”If we were to talk in hushed tones about what would constitute a Tasmanian Grand Cru Chardonnay, the Tolpuddle would be the front-runner. Superb.” - The Australian Wine Companion, 98 points

A stunning, white-knuckle ride of a Chardonnay. Rocky mineral aromas vie with grapefruit and waxy lemons and slices of white truffle. If it were Burgundy, it would be a Philippe Colin Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru, jam-packed with tangy fruit and woody high notes, but it isn't, it's from an island 12,000 miles away in the Tasman Sea. Astonishing wine! 13.5% alc. Drink now-2036.

Press review:

The Australian Wine Companion: “Another alluring Coal River Chardonnay release from the folks at Tolpuddle. It's at once full and concentrated but is reined in by a tight framework of acidity, coiling on rails of minerality before powering across the palate. Tension and detail on point, light textural phenolic elements give it a sleek and silken mouthfeel. The fruit tones of white peach, nectarine and citrus are cloaked in soft spice, white floral tones, struck match, almond paste and crushed stone and the wine displays a stony elegance and seriousness on the long finish. If we were to talk in hushed tones about what would constitute a Tasmanian Grand Cru Chardonnay, the Tolpuddle would be the front-runner. Superb.” 98 points

The Wine Advocate: “The Tolpuddle Chardonnay is routinely a class act, polished and piercing in every vintage iteration, and somehow delivers a deeply satisfying, comforting flow of flavor atop the more intellectual framing that it is known for. Here, the 2022 Chardonnay leads with white peach and flowers, layers of green apple, saltbush, ocean spray, gently leafy herbs and tobacco to close. In the mouth, the tannins expand to fill the space, creating a capacious feeling—a cavern, almost. Suffice it to say, this is a wonderful wine, again. Gently grippy through the finish, it's totally composed. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drink now-2035“ 97 points

Decanter (previous vintage): “A wonder of lightness and precision; a hedonistic mix of immediate restrained pleasure and long-term intellectual provocation. An amazingly subtle and complex finish. I adore this wine. Drink now-2050.“ 99 points and Decanter ‘White Wine of the Year’.

Jancis Robinson MW (previous vintage): “Fabulous tension on the nose. And a very broad, satisfying fruit that really fills in every space on the palate. Best yet!” 17.5+ points

Richard Hemming MW (previous vintage): “Lifted, exotic, sulphidic matchstick aromas backed up by tropical fruit. Very intense. This has immense style and intensity, with lots of winemaking sophistication. Drink now-2029.” 17.5 points
