Critic tasting note: "(2013) It was at first surprising to see a 2007 white on the table, a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sauvignon Gris. But Elizabeth explained it was "Made to the European palate," and "somewhat modelled after Bordeaux's Haut-Brion Blanc," which is apparently the favourite white wine of the estate's owner. The wine is fermented one third in new barrels, one third in used barrels and one third in stainless steel barrels, with eight different yeasts employed to build complexity. Nice wild ferment character and a touch of complex herb and wild, gently earthy character. Lovely. Juicy quite serious palate, fantastic texture in the mouth with a palate coating dry, savoury character, the juicy lemon and nutty apple coming through." - 90/100, Tom Cannavan

The 2007 Californian vintage was spectacular.
The winter was cold and extremely dry, but conditions soon turned moderate enough to prompt an early budburst. In Central Coast, however, the drought and chilly weather took its toll, delaying budburst. The dr...
