“There’s a generosity to the ’23 chardonnays, yet they come packaged with steely, pristine acidity. There’s a succulence here with flavours of poached peaches, dried pears, ginger powder and an appealing honeycomb-nougat, even an umami-like chicken-stock character. Pockets of lemon zest, and the acidity brings it all together, ensuring a long finish with refreshment guaranteed. 95pts”
Jane Faulkner, Wine Companion
“From 40-plus year old vines. Quite rich and full yet refreshment factor is retained. Quite a bit of rich stone fruit to sniff on, preserved lime, ginger, toasted coconut whiffs, a touch of toffee apple in there too. Bold flavours, big and round yet a core of crackling, grapefruity acidity spiked with brine. There’s character in spades here, lots of texture yet crisp edges, a flourish of toffee apple to finish. Yum. Just damn yum. 95pts.”
