Only produced in outstanding vintages, Mount Brown Estates Grand Reserve is a Chardonnay of impressive power and class. This Chardonnay packs a flavour punch – ripe grapefruit peel, savoury smoky flavours on a mouth-filling palate. We are fortunate indeed to be able enjoy a locally produced Chardonnay of this quality at what can only be described as a 'bargain price'. A world class Chardonnay full of personality.
Rated Excellent & 94/100 Cameron Douglas MS, June 2024 (2022 Vintage)
"Bold and expressive with a rounded spherical bouquet of roasted nut and stone fruit, baking spice layers and a lees-driven mineral quality. Full-bodied, creamy and richly textured on the palate with a core fleshy ripe stone fruit flavours, grapefruit peel and layers of nut, lees, and baking spice-barrel qualities. A delicious wine with lots of aromatic and palate appeal. Best drinking from late 2024 through 2029."
5 Stars & 95/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2024 (2022 Vintage)
"It's elegantly complex on the nose, showing white flesh stone fruit, fig, nougat and oatmeal aromas with a hint of flinty nuance. The palate displays excellent concentration and richly textured mouthfeel, wonderfully structured by bright acidity. Gorgeously harmonious with finesse, finishing impressively long and engaging. At its best: now to 2032."
