96 points James Halliday Wine Companion
Hand-picked, chilled, whole-bunch pressed, the juice settled, gravity flow to French puncheons (30% new) for wild fermentation and 9 months maturation in a cool room below 20 degrees C. A fresh fruit-driven bouquet introduces a palate that flows without interruption to the finish and aftertaste.

95 points The Real Review
Very light-yellow hue with a shy, restrained, faintly nutty aroma, which seems a little muffled or unready. The palate is intense and fine, restrained, and a tad unready. It’s still emerging but has intensity and very attractive flavor. Long, lingering finish with frisky acidity and real tension. A ripping chardonnay and great value at the price.
