Jeni Port
A memorable name – Frogmore – comes together with a memorable young Chardonnay from southern Tasmania’s Cambridge area. It fits that Goldilocks wine style – just right – whether it’s depth of flavour, the level of oak contribution, bright acidity or the ripeness and freshness of stone fruits and citrus. All round well-composed with aromas of white peach, nectarine, citrus lemon, almond meal, roasted nuts and hints of savoury preserved lemon and spice. The palate is brisk and clean, tight and sunny with appealing textural and leesy almond mealiness properties. Overall, there is a lovely freshness which prevails here which is so enjoyable now, but comes with the ability for further ageing. The finish highlights a tight focus on citrus as a lasting farewell. Points: 93/100
