Ray Jordan’s review
Plenty happening here in an excellent chardonnay that reflects the quality of the 2024 vintage. Hand-harvested and whole-bunch pressed into a combination of small and larger French oak. Aromas strike immediately with a punchy mix of stone fruit and grapefruit, backed by cashew and lemon curd nuances. The palate reveals subtle peachy stone fruit and cut lime, set against textured vanilla notes that build a powerfully intense wine. The dry, savoury finish adds the final polish.
