March 30, 2024 - Think this is at peak drinking time for me. Felt settled into itself with a pleasant sulphury nose, integrated and softened acids. Not too lean/austere but not flabby either.

October 16, 2019 - The appearance is clear, pale lemon.
On the nose, it’s clean, medium intensity. The aroma are of white rose, red apple, peach, grapefruit, pipeapple, cream, bread, vanilla and it’s developing.
On the palate, the wine is dry, high acidity, medium body and medium+ alcohol. The flavour intensity is medium+ with aromas of lemon, peach, pipeapple, butter and vanilla. The finish is medium+.
Overall, it’s a very good wine, with good balance of acidity and stone fruit flavours. It can drink now but has potential for ageing. -

April 15, 2019 - Nose - citrus, flint, wet stone
Palate - lemon sorbet, grapefruit and lemon thyme, racy acidity.
Finish - medium/long
Very good, nice, restrained and tight, clearly cool climate chardonnay, should improve over the next 10 years if not considerably more given the screwcap
