The winery writes "Scents of white peach, ripe grapefruit, and citrus blossom combine with toasty/nutty oak aromas to produce a complex and engaging bouquet. The wine is rich and concentrated in the mouth yet remains focused and composed with outstanding persistence and length of flavour. Stone fruit, citrus, and toasty oak flavours, gently drying phenolics and a fine backbone of acidity combine effortlessly to produce a seamless, harmonious palate with a mouthwatering finish. A fabulous wine of exquisite balance, poise and tension that encapsulates what great Chardonnay is all about."
Cameron Douglas MS writes "A rather enticing bouquet of fresh yellow and white peaches, layers of lees and barrel spices, a seam of wood smoke and classic stony earth soil suggestions. Lovely weight and tension as the wine touches the palate. Flavours of stone fruits and citrus along with spices and smoke mirror the bouquet. A complete wine with mouthfeel and poise, length and complexity."
Cuisine Magazine writes "Fresh and clean on the nose with bright citrus, stone fruit and layers of creamy aromas that are also reflected through the flavoursome and complex palate. The palate is crisp and textural with good concentration."
