Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, July 5, 2022 - Gorgeous wine. Every chardonnay I have tasted in the last couple of years that came from 2013 in Margaret River has been excellent, be that from Cape Mentelle in the southern region to Yallingup in the north. Pierro is smack bang in the Golden Triangle heart of Wilyabrup, with some of the oldest plantings in the area that deliver great fruit to a winemaker who really has honed his craft. Rightly considered one of the great wines in MR for a very long time. Mellowed to a golden hue, wonderful nose of a little almond meal and butterscotch, but very restrained. Very rich palate, fully developed, bit of lemon curd rather than the honeycomb the nose might have suggested, the oak giving a great backbone that lets the fruit play out. Top of its game - drink it if you have some.
