CREDARO 1000 Crowns Chardonnay, Margaret River The Credaro family, originally from northern Italy, settled in Margaret River in 1922. Brothers Cesaro and Olympio worked in agriculture and the timber industry and helped build the regions first bridges, railways and major roads. The family also made wine every year for themselves and their neighbours. Commercial involvement in the wine industry had to wait until the 1980s, when the Credaros began supplying other established Margaret River wineries. In 2019 the family owned and/or managed 110ha of vineyard over five sites across the region and built a 1200-tonne winery near Yallingup in northern Margaret River, in 2003. 1000 crowns (nominally $500) was the Credaro familys original investment and the name is today applied to their flagship wines. The 1000 Crowns Chardonnay typically shows fragrant white peach and citrus aromas with pear and nougat nuances. The palate is rich with flavours of stonefruits, grapefruit and citrus blossom complemented by a creamy texture from lees influence. A fine acid line provides a mineral framework and fruit flavours generally linger through a long, flavoursome finish.

Pale yellow with a green hue, this is a wine iof great length with aromas of grapefruit, peach, citrus, wet stone and flint with white fruit, citrus curd, and fine French oak flavours.

Complex and restrained. Roasted nuts and nougat. Underlying citrus blossom. Ample texture. Long fine acidity.

Made from vines planted in 2002, the fruit was harvested at moderate ripeness, based on flavour and retention of natural acidity, then barrel fermented in French oak and aged for a further ten months. In the glass: Green straw, yellow highlights.On the nose: Bold and striking lime and nectarine freshness with subtle, complexing ozone and oyster shell notes.On the palate: Terrific poise and balance with the beautiful aromas carrying precisely through to the palate, driven by lime-like acidity and perfectly judged quality oak.

Pale straw green in colour showing complex bouquet of intense citrus, roasted cashew and flinty notes. The palate is fine and creamy with a long crisp finish.

'These Hay Shed Hill chardonnays have reached a new level in recent years, and this one is another cracker. Classically Margaret River with its powerful palate and super fruit intensity, there is a nice mix of grapefruit and pear with a little roasted cashew influence. It retains a lively freshness which makes for excellent current drinking.' - 94 Points. - Ray Jordan.
