  January 2, 2020 - Wow this is great. Mineral stone fruit and focused but without the struck match reductive hints one sometimes gets. I'd be happy to get this quality in burgundy costing 2-3x as much - which is why I tend to buy this instead!!

  May 17, 2019 - Just brilliant, slightly more defined than my last bottle. Pure lemon accented stone fruits with a bright top note balanced by green leaf, a hint of smoke, and really lush acidity. Harmonious with brilliant structure, this is Chardonnay that really sings.

  March 9, 2019 - Delicious and peak drinking. Nectarine and mandarin with touches of ctirus. A touch of smoke and a nice brambly quality, this delivers plenty of charm and character, wrapped in an understated sophistication. Long finish with well balanced acidity. A steal.

  October 7, 2017 - Lamma Island - Boat Trip and Long Saturday Lunch (Rainbow Restaurant, Sok Kwu Wan, First St,, Lamma Island, Hong Kong): Nice light gold colour. Attractive nose more on the tropical fruit and lemons end of the spectrum. Really enjoyable on the palate in a St. Aubin or Rully stle. some length. Excellent QPR and very more-ish.
