One of the stellar Chardonnays of Australia. Unfortunately, this is way too young now, but shows the juice that will make it age gracefully. Medium lemon in the glass. Aromas lean to green apple, lemon, lime, unripe rock melon. Acidity is still a bit sharp and out of sync with the fruit richness. Oak is subtly playing a symphony in the background. Long, refreshing finish. Can't wait to revisit this in a few years.

brilliant Aussie chardonnay, amongst the very best i have seen from this country. Peach, apricot, fennel, still a light touch of oak to be subsumed, with beautiful floral top notes. Incredible length. Wouldn't be out of place amongst the better PC's of Puligny. At four years, too young, but showing amazing promise. 95+ points, drink 2022-2030. Very highly recommended.

Golden colour. Great intensity of ripe apple, lemon curd, vanilla, oak, brown butter spice. Great length.
