Giaconda Estate Vineyard Chardonnay 2024
Currently limited to 1 bottle per customer. Available in store only.
“There are few wines in the world that bring anticipation and longing. Domaine de la Romanée-Conti does it for some. Giaconda does it for me…Pale medium colour. Exquisite pure grapefruit, apricot, nectarine aromas with underlying marzipan/ flinty notes. Superbly balanced with grapefruit, lime bitters, lemon pastille, nectarine fruits, fine slinky/ chalky textures, underlying grilled nut/ tonic water notes, lovely mid-palate viscosity/ weight and fresh linear and crisp acidity. Ethereal, creamy, and complex with slight al-dente texture lengthening the palate. Absolutely to die for. A magical experience. Beautiful and perfect to drink now but will hold and evolve.” 100 points- Andrew Caillard MW
Giaconda Estate Vineyard Roussanne 2024
“The 2024 Estate Vineyard Roussanne leads with white pepper and fennel, pineapple, star Jasmine and green apple, all accompanied by the classic Giaconda reductio, too. In the mouth, the wine is concentrated and rich, yet stops short of being viscose or oily, such is the cut-through of saline acidity. This is routinely one of the most impressive Roussannes in Australia” – Erin Larkin, The Wine Advocate
Giaconda Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir 2024
“Red berry fruits laced with dewy rose petals, a splash of negroni and a zephyr of charcuterie oak char in the background. Round and supple with a gentle stream of tannins underpinning the fruit. It's like 1995 pinot meets mature 89. Without much need for debate, this is the most complete and authentic pinot for quite some time.” - Rick Kinzbrunner, Chief Winemaker at Giaconda.
