SKU: XANRESCHA23
The Xanadu Reserve range continues to be the best of what can be produced in a given vintage. This is the 12th consecutive release of the Reserve Chardonnay, and 100% of the fruit for this wine is from the oldest Chardonnay vineyard, the Lagan Estate. The low-yielding vineyard produces bunches with characteristic 'hen and chicken' architecture, which is typical of the Gingin clone.

”This is a humdinger. Sure it’s tightly wound, given its youth and all the electrifying acidity within, but there’s substance and depth, too. A little waxy, refined, with grapefruit, lemon, ginger spice, a dash of oak spices (the 20% new French oak superbly integrated) and a little yuzu tonic water pucker. It’s linear, long, with moreish sulphides, the merest hint of creamy lees and almost a savoury overlay. Brilliant.”
– Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion
