November 3, 2021 - Seems to be improving. A perfect accompaniment to prosciutto

November 4, 2018 - Great chardonnay. The balance is striking, in particular the acidity underpins the fruit with great skill. It is still very young, but has a great future.

July 26, 2018 - Big nose of peach and white stone fruit, wet slate and a hint of oak. More buttery on the palate, with good acid balance, and a minerally hint in the finish. Will have to see how these develop.

May 19, 2018 - Vanilla, honey, butter and cream, with some peach flavours.
Deliciously smooth.
Light gold colour and a long finish. Paired with a feta, pine nut and chicken risotto -

September 26, 2016 - With similar wine making to the Stevens Rd, I was surprised to find such a huge contrast in the finished product
Peach and grapefruit aromatics
Huge acidity, white nectarine, pear turning to grapefruit. Mineral is a counterpoint rather than a major feature in the bracing racy, but no way austere, texture
A lovely example of letting the fruit speak for itself
