Robert Parker Score: 98 points
Reviewer: Erin Larkin — July 2023 Week 113 Mar 2025
Drink 2025–2048
The 2018 Art Series Chardonnay is powerful and intense and all in balance as well. The wine shows immense length, and the shape of it displays a powerful, muscular entry, no relaxing on the middle palate and tailing off slowly through the interminable finish. No part of this wine breaks rank with another, and that is its superpower. There are notes of pink grapefruit, salted peach, curry leaf, nashi pear, red apple skins, almond meal/crushed cashews, caper brine and sourdough crust. Very impressive, as ever, this is one of Australia's greatest Chardonnays.
