Winery notes (2023 Vintage)
"Ripe peach / white flesh nectarine flavours with a rich, full palate and soft finish. A mouthfilling, lush style that pairs well with full flavoured seafood or pork dishes and will cellar for 5 years or more."
Cameron Douglas MS, March 2024 (2023 Vintage)
"Aromatic, lifted and intriguing bouquet with scents of fresh and roasted stone fruits, a whisper of lime then lighter scents of dried herb and stone. Dry on the palate with flavours of apple flesh and lees-baked-goods suggestions. A satin texture, medium+ acid line and even finish. Overall good with best drinnking from 2024 through 2026."

5 Stars Michael Cooper, September 2022 (2022 Vintage)
"An emerging star. The distinctive, delicious 2022 vintage was fermented and matured on its yeast lees for four months in stainless steel tanks. Bright, light yellow/green, it is fragrant, full-bodied and vibrantly fruity, with generous, peachy, slightly spicy flavours, appetising acidity and a dry, rich finish. Full of youthful drive, it's a highly characterful wine, for drinking now onwards."
5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, December 2021 (2021 Vintage)
"This is a gorgeous expression of the variety, showing elegantly perfumed aromas of apricot, fig, warm spice and jasmine on the nose, leading to a wonderfully weighted palate that's succulent and supple. Textural, flavoursome and beautifully structured by bright acidity, finishing persistent and mouth-watering. At its best: 2026."
18/20 (90) Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, November 2021 (2021 Vintage)
"Bright, yellow-green with some depth, even colour throughout. The nose is attractive and voluminous, filled the glass with aromas of white blossom, ripe stonefruit and a suggestion of quince. Medium-full bodied, dry to taste, aromas of ripe peach, quince and pear interweave peach blossom, expended by alcohol power to a spiced finish. Brisk, expressive fruit aromas carried by a mouth-filling, unctuous palate. Alcohol power elevated the mouthfeel and finish. This is a voluminous Albarino sings ripe fruit and blossom on an unctuous palate. Match with roasted pork and grilled octopus over the next 3+ years. Fruit from Bridge Pa Triangle, cool-fermented in stainless steel to 14.5% alc, 3.2g/l RS, rested on lees for 4 months."
