Immaculate vinification of the best fruit has produced maximum results for a great wine at a fair price. White peach, melon and pink grapefruit are joined at the hip.” 97 points - James Halliday
The bouquet spells artful crafting of some very fine fruit. All the classic Margaret River, Chardonnay elements are here: fresh citrus, fig and melon, imbued with vanilla bean, minerals, brioche, nutmeal and nougat. The palate has acquired subtle caramel and nutmeal complexity and texture from time in fine French oak. A bright citrus acidity gives length, clarity and line to this fine and stylish wine.
