Judges: Dave Brookes, Sarah Pidgeon, Michelle Bouffard, Patrick Haddock, Damian Hutton, Dave Johnson, BrendanCarr, Paul Dixon, Hope Metcalf, Ben Rector

Entered: 46Class comments: Top points to a classic silky Riesling with great flow. The other Gold is aspiring to slaty Europeancomplexity. Someone had a good crack at off-dry but needs a bit more drive. Some green and some dilute winesreflects the challenging season. Rain rain go away. The fresh Prince sits on the throne. Boom Boom shake theroom.

Seven Gold, eighteen Silver, thirty five Bronze from 104entries. Modern Australian Chardonnay is about building layers of flavour while keeping everything in balance andsubtle. Back to Michelle "no better grape than Chardonnay displays (Australia's) evolution and maturation of style!"
