2018 Crittenden Estate 'Kangerong' Chardonnay
93 points - Ned Godwin, Halliday Wine Companion
Fermented wild before spending 11 months in oak (20% new), this sits somewhere between a flinty Chablis-inspired expression and a more relaxed wine from the Maconnais. Comparisons such as these are effete, but useful. After all, Burgundy is the benchmark when it comes to this great variety. Think white peach, oatmeal and vanilla, given fine support by a thread of juicy acidity. Delicious.
91 points - Huon Hooke, The Real Review
Medium yellow colour with obvious dissolved CO2. The aroma is youthful, fresh and reserved, with some peachy, stone fruit and fresh herb notes, the palate soft and round and a tad straightforward. Balanced, refreshing acidity. An attractive wine, with a future.
