Description

A new wine into the L.A.S. Vino stable this year, the Margaret River Chardonnay from Nic Peterkin is his introduction to the regional style of Chardonnay from his home.

It's ripe and luscious, juicy and bright, filled with the signature L.A.S. Vino flair. It's a wine designed as something of a gateway drug into the delicious world of Nic's single vineyard Chardonnays.

It packs the classic Margaret River Chardonnay punch and while this is technically his entry-level Chardonnay, many produce we suspect would be happy with this as their flagship.

"Complex yet understated. Medium-long, harmonious finish. A superb wine in a slightly lighter style than the single-vineyard chardies."
- Huon Hooke (The Real Review)

"Let’s call it ‘entry level’ but with panache. Fleshy, textural thing, this. Full flavour, lots of energy, persistence too... Delicious, is the message. Potent and pretty with presence and a sense of power. Done well." - Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)

93 points - "Nutty, nougat, wheaty, honeyed aromas, butter joining in with time in the glass. Complex yet understated. Medium-long, harmonious finish. A superb wine in a slightly lighter style than the single-vineyard chardies." - Huon Hooke (The Real Review)

93 points - "Let’s call it ‘entry level’ but with panache. Fleshy, textural thing, this. Full flavour, lots of energy, persistence too, sweet spices stain the palate and a roll call of stone fruits, gingery spice, some nougat elements and a touch of sugared almond. Delicious, is the message. Potent and pretty with presence and a sense of power. Done well." - Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)

L.A.S. Vino

Nic Peterkin’s blood runs red with Margaret River wine.

The son of Pierro founder, Dr Mike Peterkin and Shelly Cullen, of you guessed it, Cullen wines fame, the force is strong with this one. His wines are out there, challenging the status quo of one of the country’s most respected wine-producing regions. This is the “New Guard” of Margaret River, and the wines are coming out all guns blazing.

Nic is playing with some varieties off the beaten path of classic Margaret River. The Chardonnays and Chenin Blancs are stellar, as is the Cabernet but the likes of Touriga Nacional and Sousao all find a home amongst his eye-catching range.

There's some serious substance to his project, being named as the 2016 Gourmet Traveller Young Winemaker of the Year for his eclectic and tantalising releases and recently named the Dark Horse of the Year at the 2023 Halliday Wine Companion Awards. Nic is one of the most creative and boundary-pushing winemakers in the country, without question. His Margaret River range is truly unlike anything else you will find in Australia.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
