Critic Reviews
2021 Vintage.
96 pts James Halliday Top 100 "Barrel fermented in new and used French puncheons which contribute to both the flavour and texture of this very appealing wine. It's savory and dry, but the lemon zest and fruit flavours are the prime movers in showing what can be done event in a vintage that wasn't easy."
Cellaring Potential
Will certainly reward 5-7 years in your cellar for those who can wait and appreciate the developed characteristics of white wine.
