    January 7, 2019 - Drinking well now, caramel notes and good length. Drink up.

    January 25, 2016 - Fairly fresh and modern and particularly so at 4yrs. Lots of lemon on the nose and palate and tending towards bitter late. No daggy or funky bits at all. Maybe not great value at A$38.

    September 16, 2014 - I absolutely loved this. Bright lemon, oyster shells, a bit pithy. Smoky notes emerge with time. Light to medium bodied. High acid, very mineral and quite vinous. Intense, clean and lingering. No fruit on the palate, all about rocks and structure. Great wine. Simple, clean, mineral, pure, refreshing and intense. Not about fruit or complexity. Just a touch of sweetness balancing the structure, barely perceptible. Fantastic with garlic, lemon and cilantro chicken.

    September 7, 2014 - Bibendum Public Portfolio Tasting 2014 (Sydney, Australia): Mineral and pear. Fresh flavours, good acid cut but finishes with a touch of bitterness.
