A cracking pair of wines, the Rosenthal Marker Chardonnay 2022 from the cool climate region of Pemberton, combines complexity and richness with a lovely balance of fruit, texture and french oak. It's a big chardonnay and one that is drinking superbly now. The Victorian Provenance Golden Plains Pinot Noir 2021 offers an elegant balance of rich, red-fruited flavour, fresh natural acidity and fine tannins. This is as seductive as pinot noir comes, the aromatics leap from the glass and the palate is both elegant and savoury.
