"There is considerable volume and the nose presents as a lifted combination of fruit aromas and blossom-like scents, reminiscent of honeysuckle or nasturtium. The aromas are typical Moss Wood, with yellow flesh nectarine, peach and passionfruit. There are also interesting complex notes of malt biscuit, caramel, mature cheese and charry oak and once again, the usual Moss Wood marmalade characters.
The wine initially fills the mid-palate with generous, ripe stone fruit flavours and these combine with full body and lively acidity to give lifted, juicy mouth feel. There are complex secondary flavours of citrus and oak and roast nut and malt that combine to give an almost lemon meringue pie combination on the finish. Despite the presence of oak, the tannins are in good balance, so the wine has a clean finish, with a smooth texture."

"The 2009 Chardonnay begins with complex wild, yeasty / savory aromas emitting notes of yeast extract, toasted almonds, baking bread and crushed cashews over-spiced apple slices, white peaches and orange blossom. Full-bodied, concentrated and opulent in the mouth, it has layers of toast, nut and stone fruit flavors with a creamy texture and good backbone of crisp acid to enliven. The finish is long and savory. Delicious now, it will reward cellaring, drinking best 2012 to 2018+."
