This wine was exceptional. It was a straw yellow colour and had real substance and length. Some oak and wonderful to enjoy. Absolutely no signs that it was nearing it's peak. A cracker.

Beautiful Chardonnay in a Meursault Premier Cru style. Orchard fruits and a little oak. Quite aromatic, fresh and very classy, you can easily see that it comes from a cooler region. Good persistence...it can be enjoyed now or cellared for another 5 years. Bottled under a screw cap.

2012 Sydney Royal Wine Show - Exhibitor's Tasting (Olympic Park, Homebush): Gold medal. {screwcap} Youthful. Juicy peach/melon aromas. Little oak evident. Typical white-fleshed chardonnary flavours on the palate, but framed by wonderful acid; long, even and balanced. There’s a little oak in the form of seasoning rather than flavour, but it all adds up to a medium-full bodied white, with a long, dry and balanced finish. Beautiful now, but no reason to think it shouldn’t age well.

Christmas supper with the Wine Ark boys (Fix St. James, 111 Elizabeth Street, Sydney): Rich, buttery, peachy and toasty, slight citrus fruit, slight honeysuckle on the nose. In the mouth it's quite lemony and buttery. Tangy and the oak is integrated though present. A little warm on the finish but nice.
