"This new wine is a little brother to Tapanappa's Tiers Chardonnay. It has a rich, full-blown stone fruit and nutty bouquet showing lees and barrel-ageing characters. High acidity and rich, generous fruit flavours of peach and cashew nut; not overtly oaky."
Huon Hooke, Top Aussie White, May 2011
"The aromas are subtle and delicate despite the fruit ripeness and the barrel and malo-lactic fermentations. In 2009 the usual white peach aroma of Piccadilly Valley Chardonnay is toned down to nectarine and melon fruit complemented by cashew and cinnamon oak and lees characters. The usual full texture of Piccadilly Valley Chardonnay is present and the finish of the wine is savoury with the naturally high acid and moderate alcohol providing a refreshing and balanced finish."

"Lovely signature of peaches and cream like a subtle Peach Melba desert, a touch of vanilla and caramel. Gorgeous oak accent and some citrus and nectarine all vying for attention. The palate shows, citrus, burnt apple and grilled nuts, some really great texture before a long spicy oak finish. Complex and refined, elegant and impressive."
