Light straw-yellow hue; a complex bouquet of creamy lees-derived and dried fruit aromas plus biscuity oak and a little toastiness. It's bright and intense in the mouth, delicate and piercing, with intensity allied with superb refinement, a precision chardonnay of superior tension and finesse. Great depth of lemon/grapefruit flavour. Long, long carry. Beautiful to drink now and surely has a great future. Drink 2022 to 2036. 97pts Huon Hooke

The colour is pretty deep and bold, though that’s neither here nor there. Sea salt, violets, tangerine and white nectarine, aniseed, nutmeg and assorted sweet spices, a slight clay-like earthiness. It’s saline and bright, bursts with ripe acidity, a very ‘minerally’ feel to it, juicy lime and pink grapefruit, a firm chalk dust texture, and lime zest. Intense, really tight, with superb length. Almost a nod to Jura here. Such distinctive personality and so much charisma. It’s superb. Drink 2022-2030+. 97pts Gary Walsh - Winefront
