Here I am working through the 2021 single vineyard range for Ten Minutes By Tractor, and it turns out the 2022 wines have already been released! If you can jag some of this superb Ten Minutes By Tractor McCutcheon Chardonnay 2021 then jump…
It’s just a wonderful wine. There’s a deft balance of understated white peach, citrus acidity and just a little milk bottle reduction, all backed with a sense of ripe, but not overripe, perfectly fresh fruit. It’s taut, with that ideal nectarine flavour that says ‘nailed the pick dates’ and with tight, yet not hard, acidity.
Wonderfully balanced, and frankly delicious, Mornington Chardonnay.
