It looks like another Whimwood chardonnay is on the rise. The taste-off for top chardonnay was a two-horse race (between the 16 & 18 Whimwood Chardonnay), according to all three judges. The family resemblance is strong, with fig/white peach fruit supported by nutty/funky complexity. The palate is long, delivering texture, intensity and a good line of acidity ★★★★★ ​

Plenty happening in this excellent chardonnay from this terrific new producer. Struck match and cashew with butterscotch overtones on the nose. The rich palate is a feature with its depth and length. Dry flinty finish completes an excellent wine.

2017 Whimwood Chardonnay

2019 Ray Jordan Wine Guide
94 Points
Another cracking good chardonnay from this little producer which in a few years has created quite a reputation for the quality of its chardonnays. Ripe fig and butterscotch with minerally stone fruit and mealy grapefruit edges. A powerful linear palate that has tremendous promise. Like it.

More weight and fruit intensity than the previous vintage.  The result is a better wine.  Has a sweet ripe fruit character with plush plummy flavours, spice and some nice vanillin oak.  Generous and medium-bodied with a pleasing finish.

2017 Whimwood Shiraz

2019 Ray Jordan Wine Guide
89 Points
A delightfully presented cool-climate shiraz. The spicy pepper characters emerge on the nose with a black cherry fruitiness. The palate is seamlessly structured with a savoury dried herbs thread supported by fine sinewy tannins. A lighter-bodied wine, but with good flavour intensity.
