Giant Steps is a highly acclaimed, cult producer making tiny volumes of superb Single Vineyard wines. And this 2019 Sexton Vineyard Chardonnay is nothing less than spellbinding. Australian Chardonnay has been going from strength to strength in recent years, but this is on a whole new level. Don’t delay, trust us, and buy it, and when you taste it, we know you will be thanking us. The Sexton vineyard is often revered as the best of the 4 single vineyard Chardonnays, even more reason to buy it.

the bouquet is tightly wound but has power, increasing with every swirl of the glass, aromas of peach skin, white fleshed nectarines with notes of grapefruit, apple crumble and hints of vanilla French oak.

the palate packs some weight, powerful with a long, zesty finish. Stone fruit flavours resonate on the palate with complexing nuances of lemon, brioche and a lovely creamy mid-palate texture. A wonderful expression of Chardonnay that will benefit from 3-5 years in the cellar.
