James Suckling, 94 Points 

"Lots of whole bunches driving a sappy fresh-herb edge to the nose, as well as fruit that moves in a strawberry and red-cherry direction. So fresh and vibrant on the palate, this has a bright stream of red-cherry flavors and attractively crisp tannin. Drink now. Screw cap." 

Wine Enthusiast, 94 Points 

"Wombat Creek again proves a winner in the range of single-vineyard Chardonnays from this top Yarra Valley producer. It's the highest elevation, grown on volcanic loam soils, and shimmers with a mineral complexity like sunbaked clay, lightly toasted hazelnuts and high-toned lemon zest. Butterscotch notes appear as it warms in glass. In the mouth, an unforced, lemony acidity bounces on the tongue. A well-structured wine with great depth, length and purity. Drink now–2030."
