93/100 | Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine Reviews
Askerne Chardonnay has long been a favourite with the Advintage Faithful and this 2022 will not disappoint. On the palate lovely citrus notes combine with medium fruit weight to produce a refreshing and delicious creamy chardonnay with great line and length. The wine completed 100% malolactic post ferment in addition to ageing on lees for 10 months and the result is a highly complex chardonnay. Go long.

Cameron Douglas MS writes "Aromas of peach and vanilla, cashew and burnt butter, scents of some new then used barrel with a mix of baking spices and yoghurt. Plenty of weight, a satin texture, creaminess and power as the wine touches the palate. Flavours of baked apple and peach, vanilla and nut, moments of baking spices and stone. A well made wine, dry on the finish, moderate+ complexity with an even persistent flavour profile."
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "Gorgeously ripe and inviting, the bouquet shows golden peach, citrus peel, nougat and hazelnut aromas, leading to a flavoursome palate that's succulent and creamy. Generous and delectably appealing."
The winery writes "Beautifully aromatic with sweet vanillan notes, delicate florals, scented oak spice and subtle creaminess. Complimented with aromas of quince, honeysuckle, golden peach and tropical nuances. The palate is juicy with grapefruit acidity, peach and nectarine flavours and a deliciously long finish."
