"It's hard to meet a keen wine drinker who either doesn't love or at least admire Nicholson River's Chardonnay - considered by many pundits to be one of Australia's greatest. It shows intensity and power, but with an emphasis on structure rather than fruity-tuitiness. And it's from a tiny little place on Victoria's east coast near Lakes Entrance. Crop levels are low here, and Bass Strait often gives this area a real blast, but Nicholson River happily soldiers on. Pinot Noir is well worth a second taste here, too."
