Critic reviews
"The 2023 Chardonnay is a pretty, delicate rendition of Chardonnay and exhibits lovely, pliable phenolic structure in the mouth. This is, in fact, one of the highlights, as it creates a capaciousness on the palate that accommodates the brine, preserved citrus, white peach and almond meal. The length is compelling too. Very good, persistent wine here. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap."
Erin Larkin, November 2024, RobertParker.com
"The highly focussed 2023 Yarra Yering Chardonnay shows the elegance of the vintage with layers of creamed cashews and peach nectar plus a whisper of reduction. Tangy acidity defines the linear, chalky texture, which remains tight and unevolved as just-ripe citrus tones and fresh nougat lingers through the finish. This should improve with time in the cellar."
Angus Hughson, June 2025, Vinous.com
"Ripe and rich aromas of pineapple, poached apples and blossom honey. The palate is medium-bodied with bright acidity, giving notes of lemon curd, candied lime zest and sea salt. Powerful and generous, with underlying tension. Drink or hold. Screw cap."
James Suckling, November 2024, JamesSuckling.com
"Lime and smoky slate-quarry dust on the nose. Stony, and a torque of coruscating lime acidity and yet awash with creamy fruit. Texture like soapstone. Fine-ground almond on the undertow. Intense, intentional, very much a forward driving shaft of quiet power but at the same time there is nothing flashy about this wine."
