  A lightly golden yellow in colour with green tinges, a flinty and mineral nose of sour edged nectarine and wood spice. The structure of this wine is superb, it is 10 years old but has a line of racy grapefruit acidity that is the perfect counterpart to the more developed stone fruits and wood spices.
  
  The finish is layered with spice, almond meal, white peach and impossibly precise acidity that gives the finish exceptional length. This wine was bottled under screw cap and will easily go another 5 - 8 years.
  
  Those who haven't discovered this wine, or some of the premier Chardonnay's of Geelong and Bellarine Peninsula don't know what they are missing out on!

  Beautiful golden colour, rich wine with tropical fruit elements. Some slight grapefruit elements cashews banana peel. Well balanced with a lovely mouthfeel. Slighty spicy.

  Some elegant minerality and slate on the nose. Really well handled oak treatment, with the oak providing strong support and a touch of toast but no signs of the oak dominating the fruit.
