James Suckling, 90 Points 

"Toasty chardonnay showing smoked almond, oat, lemon curd and pie crust aromas. Medium to full body, ripe and flavorful."  

Winemaker Notes: 

"Very bright pale-yellow colour with green, vivacious hue. Complex, appealing nose of apricot, peach, pear, lemon zest and floral notes with hints of toasted almonds. On the palate the wine is well structured and linear but retains generous focused stone fruit flavours with sleek, balanced, and crisp acidity. The wine remains vivacious and fresh on the finish with clean citrus fruit underpinned by minerality. The wine has a long, very pleasant lingering finish." 

Alcohol: 13%
