January 1, 2014 - Complex beautiful chardonnay. Struck match, white nectarine, citrus (grapefruit maybe?), gentle integrated acid and length. Great stuff Franco.

November 28, 2012 - Light straw colour. A little funk on the nose, cashews and nuts. Intensely flavoured, well balanced and improved with each glass. Nice line of citrus through the palate and builds to more explosive and expansive nutty, spicy flavours towards the finish. Long and intense finish. Really good value and wish I had bought more.

December 19, 2010 - A very fresh stone fruit nose with an interesting funky note that is complemented by some delicate citrus notes. The palette has plenty of mineral elements and some delicate acidity with plenty of big citrus fruits. Great value.
