LS Merchants 2025 Chardonnay

A classic LS Chardonnay with a little extra something.

Sourced from Churchview Estate and MRVE. LS paired the region’s much-loved Gin Gin clone—known for its weight, fruit and aromatic depth—with P58 (Penfolds Clone 58), a textural clone that brings zesty grapefruit, citrus lift and a bit of punchy drive. 

Expect stone fruit, lemon blossom and grapefruit on the nose, flowing into creamy, nutty layers and subtle spice from the oak. Fresh, textured and dangerously drinkable.

96 points from Halliday.

以豐厚果味與馥郁香氣見稱的 Gin Gin clone，配搭 P58（Penfolds Clone 58) 帶來的鮮明西柚與柑橘氣息、細緻質感和結構。香氣有核果、檸檬花與西柚，入口延伸出奶油、堅果層次，以及橡木帶來的細緻香料感。清新、有質感，而且非常易飲。

適合搭配帶礦物感的海鮮；酒中的青檸與西柚調性猶如添上一抹新鮮柑橘汁。烤豬扒或烤雞；明亮酸度可平衡烤肉的豐腴。堅果味或濃郁的硬質芝士，呼應酒中烘烤堅果與布里歐麵包般的複雜感。
