Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"Ripe citrus and stonefruits, lightly toasted almonds, vanilla bean and orange blossom aromas. Roast peach and rockmelon, balance with supple textural creaminess on the palate, before revealing an elegant, restrained acidity and an underlying riverstone minerality.
Three unique vineyard parcels picked and gently pressed to 500L French oak puncheons. Fermented cool with selected aromatic yeast strains to retain varietal intensity and character. Extended yeast lees stirring in oak for 11 months to add palate weight and complexity. Springtime malolactic fermentation was undertaken prior to blending."
Rated Excellent & 93/100 Cameron Douglas MS, March 2025 (2024 Vintage)
"An intriguing and complex bouquet led by scents of site and soil then ripe fruits and fine winemaking complexities. Aromas of leesy apple and peach, there’s a pineapple tropical layer then barrel spice and stony soil richness. Dry, textured, salivating and new. Flavours reflect the bouquet with more emphasis on grapefruit and lemon peel then peach and apple followed by the lees and impacts on wood. Best drinking from late 2025 through 2030."
5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, March 2025 (2024 Vintage)
"It's delightfully ripe and inviting on the nose, with aromas of golden peach, mango, vanilla, and assorted nuts. The palate delivers lovely weight and creamy flow, well framed by silky texture and juicy acidity, finishing long and flavoursome. At its best: now to 2028."
