{"product_id":"2024-savaterre-frere-cadet-chardonnay","title":"2024 Savaterre Frere Cadet Chardonnay","description":"\u003cp\u003eKeppell Smith makes some of the most serious Chardonnay in Beechworth under his Savaterre label, but the Frère Cadet is where things open up a bit. The name means 'younger brother', but this isn't a second-tier wine - it's just a different terroir, sourced from a nearby vineyard and built to be much more approachable out of the gate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has all the classic Beechworth markers. You get white peach, grapefruit, and a nice hit of struck match and grilled nuts. On the palate, it has a creamy, mouth-filling weight, but it's kept firmly in check by a great line of acidity and a distinctly salty, mineral grip on the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeppell reckons this is the best Frère Cadet he’s put together yet, and it's hard to argue. It has enough structure to comfortably sit in the cellar for a few years, but it is so open and delicious right now that there’s really no need to wait. It is a no-brainer if you love Beechworth Chardonnay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A brilliant example of Beechworth chardonnay's undoubted power... remember, it is very much early days for this chardonnay.
