Icon pedigree, estate price 🍋🌿

Bass Phillip is one of Australia’s most revered Chardonnay producers, with its Premium Pinot Noir and Chardonnay recognised as Classified (Second Growth) in the Langton’s Classification. But for those wanting to experience the house style without the 'premium' price tag, the Estate Chardonnay is your ticket in.

The 2023 vintage shows exactly why this Gippsland-based icon has a cult following: citrus, white peach, struck match, and subtle oak spice, all wrapped in fine acidity and a creamy, elegant texture. It’s precise, expressive, and beautifully balanced—crafted with the same low-intervention, high-attention approach as its top-tier siblings.

For Chardonnay lovers, this is a seriously good bottle from one of Australia’s greatest Chardonnay names—without having to break the bank... too much.

What the experts say about this wine

A creamy Chardonnay, quite peachy and opulent with a hint of toffee but also with some bright citrus notes wafting in the background. The palate is round and supple, soft acid, mouth- watering ripe peach flavours fill the palate and certainly made to be enjoyed now.
