September 20, 2023 - Clear pale gold; clean medium plus nose of meyer lemon and croissant; dry; medium plus acidity; high alcohol; medium plus body; medium plus flavour intensity; palate delivers fruit and has a slight oaky burn; long finish; drink now or in a few years; delicious wine - bigger and bolder than our last bottle

June 24, 2023 - There is a real ripe, butterscotch richness to this with a good thread of of salinity running through it. A real yin and yang where the two components compliment each other well. Not quite up to the the 2019 but still excellent. Recommend decanting to bring this together if drinking now. Looking forward to following its evolution over the coming years.

May 13, 2023 - Pear and oaky vanilla followed by citrus and some minerality. Not complex but quite long and excellent overall.

April 15, 2023 - Very tasty and refreshing. Hard to put my finger on the exact flavours and textures, but I like it a lot. It is bright, fresh, and tart with lemony citrus, yet also some riper softer fruits too. Stones, perhaps light nut, and a kiss of nice oak. Hits a sweet spot for me.
