  May 29, 2020 - A most wonderful bottle. Clean transparent gold colour and the nose that was endowed with stone fruits and citrus (hint of grapefruit). An excellent body with great length and complexity depth including minerality. Just the right balance between fruit, structure and complexity. Oak was integrated and not dominant. Please Australian winemakers, use this wine as a template on how to make a good Chardonnay. Chardonnay needs fruits and not just acid! A most excellent Chardonnay.

  May 1, 2015 - 30 minute decant.
  Transparent pale white gold in colour.
  Lively nose of ripe white stone fruits and grapefruit, nectarine and light French oak spice. One hour open pineapple.
  Medium bodied, lush mouthfeel, mineral and ripe, excellent tension with freshening medium minus acidity, citrus tang, balanced, with interest.
  Wonderful wine, complex and light oak treatment.

  October 24, 2012 - Otto - Pasta Charity Dinner: Lemon, some sea spray and a little wild earth character, the nose opened and improved the longer the wine was in the glass. The palate is classy, with oak and fruit in balance and appealing length. I'd like to see this again in 3-4 years.
