Forest Hill Vineyard Highbury Fields Chardonnay 2023 13% 750ml

Ultra-pleasing chardonnay here. Even, flowing richness metered by bright acidity, all the hallmark stone fruits, apple, woody spices, nougat, vanilla going on. Supple but with a faint chalkiness, great extension of flavour, a general sense of vibrancy and drinkability. It feels dictionary definition but also a plus up on that, more of everything, and balanced beautifully. What a delight. Class above its pay grade. Drink by 2030.
