Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"A pure, bright and youthful citrus driven chardonnay with complex smoky, flint, toast and biscuit notes derived from extended barrel aging on full solids. The hallmarks of Dog Point chardonnay are ever present here with pure saline and crisp palate structure. This vintage will have the ability to age well. Perfect match with scallops, white fish, poultry and BBQ pork.

2/3 Mendoza, 1/3 B95 clones hand-picked from our home vineyard at 2.5 tonnes/ha, from vines dating back to 1984. Fruit is whole bunch pressed and transferred directly to French oak barrels (10% new) and left to undergo indigenous primary and secondary malolactic fermentations for 18 months in barrel. Bottled without fining and with only minimal filtration."

95/100 Emma Jenkins MW, Decanter, March 2025 (2022 Vintage)
"Richly aromatic with notes of lemon meringue, grapefruit, white peach, oatmeal, sizzled butter, hazelnuts and a pretty lift of white flowers. While flinty reduction is a key aspect of Dog Point’s house style (albeit more dialled back than in earlier years), it’s the silken, assured palate with its rich fruit, fine acidity, concentration and balance that seduces. Appellation Marlborough Wine certified."

92/100 Mike Bennie, The Wine Front, March 2025 (2022 Vintage)
"Well, this is a delight. It doesn’t set the fireworks off or the loud alarms, but in its quiet and gentle softness, and primary fruit, and flinty minerality, and touch of nougat, and all of that so well balanced, a calm pond, a cool sea, it’s a charming white wine that does chardonnay at a good pace and place of access. Charm."
