Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"40% of this wine was fermented in old French barrels, not for the oak, but for the form of the vessel itself. Mouthfeel is gained here by high lees to wine contact and a more efficient natural lees stirring across unhurried wild ferments."

Reviews for the 2021 vintage below…

95/100 Kasia Sobiesiak, The Wine Front, October 2023 (2021 Vintage)
"Razor-sharp aroma reaching deep into the nostrils. The purest form of the freshest ginger. Then warm flint rocks and lemongrass. It’s firm white peaches, limey zing and a hint of honey. It’s a wine of ultra purity, clarity and clean-cut definition of fruit. The execution of aromas and flavours is flawless. Amazingly, it’s plush to the touch, talcum powder softness and fine texture, yet it travels far with precision and firmness. So beautifully aware. Next level experience."

Rated Excellent & 93/100 Cameron Douglas MS, June 2023 (2021 Vintage)
"Varietal, mineral, quietly expressive within the bouquet and naturally varietal with scents of fresh herbs and some wild spices, white fleshed fruits and citrus highlights. Taut, dry, youthful and very engaging on the palate. Flavours on the palate mirror the bouquet with citrus and fresh herbs, there’s plenty of fruit spice and a back bone of acidity. Delicious, fresh, not a mainstream style – thank goodness, very taut and new – a wine that will age and develop over the next few years. Best drinking should be from 2025 through 2030+."
