"This is as lovely as they come. It tastes of citrus and pears, grapefruit and custard apples, along with an overlay of nougat/cedarwood oak, and it has drive, it has length, and it has juice. It’s fresh and a little nervy, with a mace-like character on the finish, but for balance, flavour and length; this is beautiful." - Wine Front
"A deliciously mineral and slippery drink. An array of citrus and complexity lined with a fantastic backbone of acidity. Perhaps a bottle to be consumed by yourself.
The vineyard was planted by the Calvert family in 2001 to a mixture of clones on own roots. It is predominantly pinot noir with 6 acres and accompanied by 2 acres of chardonnay. The vineyard sits at the top of the slope facing large water reserves ‘Salt Lake’ and the ‘Calvert Lough’ to the north.
It is a site that shows great fruit expression with a deceptively long and mineral palate. It is a site that truly reflects the complexities and varietal characters of the vines that are planted in this cool climate region." - By Farr
