Description
Fastidious handpicking allowed for whole bunch pressing of delicate Chardonnay juice. 100% barrel fermentation in new and seasoned French oak and extended lees ageing in barrel. A nutty, butterscotch and mealy character on the nose, hint of seasoned French oak.

“It is immediately attractive with its core of subtle citrus and melon fruits supported by subtly, spicy oak and some savoury praline barrel ferment complexity. It is dry and mid weight with a backbone of firm acidity that that supports a lingering and crisp finish. It is at peak now and is well suited to lemon chicken over the next 2 to 3 years.” 90 Points

“It’s fully mature and it’s in good drinking shape. It has creamy, buttery mouthfeel and flavour and a decent sling of yellow stone fruit flavour. It has satisfying length and enough breadth to keep you coming back for more. No alarms or indeed highlights but it works pretty well.”
