| Tasting note |
Taut, intense and complex chardonnay with nectarine, ripe peach, mineral/oyster shell, nutty yeast lees and subtle spicy oak flavours. Very appealing now but with a promising future. Clearly a great vintage. By Bob Campbell MW @ The Real Review, Sep 2022.
Fabulous bouquet with a range of scents from youthful, fresh, some new wood energy and spice with a core of fruit, to a sense of place with warm silty soils and whisps of salty air. Complex. On the palate a full-bodied wine with a satin touch, flavours of white nectarine and ripe grapefruit flesh, apples and a leesy mineral complexity. Great acid line and, judicious use of oak and core of fruit. Wood spice and tannins layer in mouthfeel, some tension and plenty of length. A lovely wine with best drinking from mid to late 2023 through 2029. By Cameron Douglas MS.
This has a delicious array of passion fruit, grilled apricots, guava, toasted nuts and rosemary. Sea shells and matchstick, too. It's full-bodied with a concentrated, flavorful and toasty palate. Tight phenolic structure, too. Lots going on. Sustainable. Drink or hold. Screw cap. By James Suckling, Sep 2022. |
