The 2006 Chardonnay “Tiers Vineyard” is similarly styled, but with more mineral and less tropical character than the 2005. It is also a bit more restrained. It will drink well for another 4-5 years. Tapanappa is a joint venture of the Cazes family of Bordeaux, the Bollinger family of Champagne, and winemaker Brian Croser of Australia. Importer: Palm Bay Imports, Boca Raton, Fl; www.tapanappawines.com.au

Ripe and generous, with pure Bartlett pear and cream flavors, lingering on the round finish. Not very spicy or marked by oak. Drink now through 2011. 75 cases made, 37 cases imported.??–HS??Region: Australia / Piccadilly Valley Select to Add

Brian Croser’s efforts with Tiers Vineyard Chardonnay have finally paid off in a big way. This is a plump, amply textured wine that doesn’t lack for elegance, marrying scents and flavors of toasted grain with white peaches and hazelnuts. Long and intense on the finish, echoing with toasty oak but also layers of vibrant fruit. Drink now–2015.——J.C.(4/1/2008)—— 93
