Owen Bargreen Review: 2020 Estate Chardonnay & 2020 'Athas' Chardonnay

Many thanks to Owen Bargreen for his amazing review of our two new releases, the 2020 Estate Chardonnay & 2020 'Athas' Chardonnay!

2020 Aubaine Estate Chardonnay: 92 points

"An outstanding new release, the 2020 Aubaine ‘Anhata Vineyard’ Estate Chardonnay reveals kumquat blossom, green apple and sourdough bread tones on the nose. The palate is fresh and polished with a soft texture and seamless quality. Medium-bodied citrus and orchard fruits combine with shades of peat moss and wild mushroom flavors. Seriously good to consume now, enjoy over the next seven years."

2020 Aubaine ‘Athas’ Chardonnay: 93 points

"The 2020 ‘Athas’ opens with mango and ripe pineapple tones on the nose, with toasty oak and hints of lemon zest dusted marzipan. The palate is deep, layered and very fresh, producing a weightless effect once on the attack. Finishing very long with stony minerals and vanilla cream, this is a glorious effort that is just starting to hit its stride."
