Hesketh Lost Weekend Chardonnay 2023

Richly hued gold in colour, this is a fresh and youthful style of Chardonnay. Bright and pleasing drinking with a really lovely supple texture, this is certainly far more impressive than one would expect for the price. A fine flick of acidity, this is juicy and full of flavour with citrus and stonefruit. A medium length wine, this is a terrific, everyday drinking style. Lots to love, enjoy it now and for a year or two. Ideal for a glass after work or with a simple seafood dish. Drink by: 2024-2026. Score – 91. (Ken Gargett, winepilot.com, June 2024)
