Jeremy Oliver 95 Points!
Jeremy Oliver 95 Points!"Shy and reserved - slowly unfolding its delicate, nougat-like, floral and waxy bouqet of nectarine, peach, pear and ginger, plus its more pungent mineral, buttery, creamy and lanolin notes. It's smoooth and very elegant, creamy and moderately viscous, with some toasty, honeyed development beneath its more forward presence of grapefruit and melon. Supported by a fine chalkiness, it steadily builds its intensity towards the finish, but does so with freshness, brightness and lingering savoury qualities."

Jeremy Oliver 95 Points!"We aim to make a Chardonnay with great length, which reaches a balance between richness and elegance. While some techniques are borrowed from the Burgundians, there are some departures from traditional practise in response to local factors, which ensure a unique wine. The most notable of these is that our Chardonnay does not undergo malolactic fermentation, as our local climate leaves the fruit with ideal acidity when it is picked. Our Chardonnay is matured in 20% new French barriques with the remainder in older barrels and large casks (1500L). The entire production is barrel fermented. As with the Triolet, grape solids are included to give the wine texture, and lees stirring to add complexity and body. The Chardonnay is also matured for 10 months."
