Luke Lambert Chardonnay 2021
Luke Lambert Chardonnay 2021
Luke Lambert is fast establishing himself as an icon in the Victorian wine industry and his eponymously named Syrah and Chardonnay are some of the finest examples of cool climate winemaking in the country. With fruit sourced from one of the coldest parts of the Yarra Valley Luke is using traditional techniques to craft a wine of rare refinement, quality and balance.
In an unassuming shed near this small town in the center of the Yarra Valley, just northeast of Melbourne, Luke Lambert makes gorgeous, minerally chardonnays and perfumed, savory syrahs under the Luke Lambert label. The wines are fresh and energetic… They are the sorts of wines I love to drink — pure and unpretentious but with character and depth. - Eric Asimov, The New York Times
The 2021 Lambert Chardonnay draws you into the glass like a siren call, with generous, pithy stone fruits, steely minerality, swishes of salinity and a touch of struck match. There’s a light tread, an elegance and a finesse, all sitting above an undercurrent of skinsy tension, a dashing mouthfeel and perfectly rendered acidity. It's not overtly fruit-forward, it never is, relying more on structure, texture and presence. It oozes depth, with a pulsating, savoury finish.
