      Power, purity and polish—Margaret River Chardonnay at its most complete.

      The 2021 Pierro VR Chardonnay is a barrel selection of the finest ten barriques from a cooler vintage, delivering an uncommonly poised and linear expression of Margaret River Chardonnay. Handpicked from mature vines planted on high-density, rocky slopes in Wilyabrup, this is Pierro at its peak—layered, textural and immaculately detailed.

      Crafted from the revered Gin Gin clone, the fruit was harvested in multiple passes to capture both bright acidity and rich mid-palate depth. Fermented in French oak (100% malolactic), it was matured on lees for 12 months with fortnightly bâtonnage, lending complexity, silkiness and savoury drive. The result is a wine of rare finesse and restraint, with signature Pierro power tucked neatly behind a chiselled core of citrus, white stone fruit, cashew and spice.

      The VR Chardonnay is only made in exceptional years, and 2021 is a standout. A wine of nuance and gravitas, it’s drinking beautifully now but built to evolve for the next decade or more.

      Pierro VR Chardonnay 2021

      Tightest Pierro Chardonnay I can recall… Beautifully integrated. Chalky minerality with a focused finish.

      — – Ray Jordan, Wine Pilot, 97 Points

      Creamy, salty and refined… Seamless. Superstar.

      — – Erin Larkin, Wine Advocate, 96 Points

      Rich and ripe, voluptuous even… But the acidity says stop. No more, I’ll finish off.

      — – Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion, 96 Points

      Peach, melon, lime, spice… calm intensity with a flinty finish of impeccable length.
