A wonderful new world Chardonnay - this is better than some Premier Crus I have had. A funky note to begin with, stone fruit and nuts (almond and cashew). Palate is perfectly balanced with nectarine and a creamy texture. Great intensity of flavour and excellent length. The first of 4. Next in a year. The next night just as impressive. — 7 days ago
Nose not giving much initially - just an earthy note - fairly contained. Probably opened a little young? The next night it showed red fruited aromatics of raspberry and strawberry. Very fine on the palate and quite delicious. The winemaker and owner Tom Carson with his French wife, Nadege, just won Viticulturalist of the year 2 days ago in the Halliday Wine Awards. They also import a range of Burgundies. In his “spare time “ Tom is also the winemaker at the highly regarded Yabby Lake. — 12 days ago

This is a really good NV tawny port and an exceptional value. The best port I've ever had in this price range — 19 days ago
This is a conversion port - to be given to the wine drinker who thinks they do not care for port. It is, before all things, a WINE - great fruit on the nose and tongue. Cranberry, raspberry and sweet cherries. The finish is where the port character comes in - sweet, unctuous, but not too sweet and unctuous. Just a delight. — 7 days ago
Thank you Soumah for this media sample.
This is not any old Yarra Valley (VIC) Chardonnay. There were only 300 dozen bottles of this Equilibrio 2019 Chardonnay made and oh my, it’s a true pleasure to drink.
Drinking this Chardonnay feels like falling in love. It’s dreamy, romantic and you can’t get enough of it.
It’s a pastel yellow shade in the glass with a wonderfully enticing nose of juicy stone fruits, pineapple, grapefruit and creamy vanilla bean butter. On the palate it’s perfectly balanced with the most deliciously silky texture. Great length of flavour and an absolute joy to drink.
All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy! — 2 days ago
There is a really nice smoky & oakey flavor to this. It has clearly been matured in wood. This process also takes away the overly sugary/sweet nature of a typical port. This is absolutely delicious! — 6 days ago

Probably the best wine I’ve purchased from Costco. It’s not cheap compared to other Costco offerings- but it’s much less cost with similar quality than the $90+ or more bottles of 20 year tawny port I’ve enjoyed. It’s just so smooth and complex that I don’t feel I need to describe the flavors profile. It’s complete. — 6 days ago
