Insanely good, again. I hardly ever give 95 for a white wine, including Burgundy cru, but this wine totally merits it. Given the lower scores by other members, I reckon the trick is to leave it for 10 years..

Has aged very well into near peak state, good developed yellow colour and plenty of flavour , sort of lacks classic Meurssult type French quality , not lush but good

Light green/gold. Plenty of freshness still. Some flowers and melon, some light honey, green apples, citrus. Really lovely acidity and elegance. Enough richness to balance the acidity. Fairly long. Excellent Chardonnay, Tasmania a place to watch. Considerable ageing possibilities, where it gets to who knows. Very slow oxidation it seems (screwcap and wine making). Does seem to have improved since those early tasting notes though.

Light green apple, citrus, crisp, fresh, no oak, no minerality, straight forward, high acidity, very short finish. More like a Sauvignon Blanc. Waste of quota. Best part about the wine is the story of the Tolpuddle Martyrs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolpuddle_Martyrs).

This was truly mind boggling. Drank previous bottles that were very good, but this was exceptional. Premier cru quality hands down.
