"This wine spends seven months in 18% new oak. Captain of Wine Fermentation Peter Gago said at the time we tasted 'I can't tell the difference between the colour of the riesling and the chardonnay, a barrel fermented chardonnay, and isn't that a wonderful thing?'. I'd not disagree.
Faint sweet sandalwood aromas, grilled nuts, white stone fruits too. The palate is coiled and light, frisky and fine, has soft and pure orchard fruit flavours with linear, crisp acidity. A thrilling line and such delicacy at play. Well formed and brisk. Delicious drinking, summery, with pleasing slim-line and focus. Yes please."
