McHenry Hohnen, 'Laterite Hills', Chardonnay 2022
DESCRIPTION
A true reflection of place and season, this Chardonnay pays homage to McHenry Hohnen's philosophy of aging and winemaking. On the nose, ginger spice, nectarine and beeswax leap from the glass, complemented by complex notes of toasted almonds and rubbed matches. The palate is creamy, yet refreshing with a mealy texture. White peach and pink grapefruit are abundant, along with notes of freshly baked pastry.
REGION
Margaret River
Australia
Margaret River is one of the best-known wine regions in Australia, recognized internationally for the quality of its wines and the natural beauty of the region. Although originally renowned for its unusually refined Cabernet Sauvignon and intensely citrusy Chardonnay varieties, the region now also produces Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc blends and Shiraz. It is famous for having a more 'European' wine style than its counterparts across Australia, owing to the region's temperate, coastal location which is very similar to that of Bordeaux.
