With its well-poised balance between richness and acids, fruit and minerality, Vistamar struck Gold with its modern Chardonnay. 'There's a flinty, smoky finish on the palate, along with grassy herbal notes,' said Bubbledogs' Sandia Chang. 'Noticeable residual sugar, but good flavour,' began Orrery's Gaetano Giangaspero, who also noted its 'aromatic and rich, exotic, passion fruit style'.

Balance, delicacy and a refreshing, broad flavour profile with pretty, lemon fruit notes took this to the top. 'Lovely, approachable fruit, hints of spice with an oily texture. Dry style, but sophisticated and fresh,' said team leader Annette Scarfe MW. 'Good minerals and rich acidity,' added Carlos Ferreira of The Sign of the Don.
