The Story

Strikingly similar conditions in terms of weather and yields to the previous vintage. Very low yields of 1.39 tonne/hectare with no rain in January, February and until the end of harvest in March.

The Chardonnay grapes were hand harvested on fruit and flower days from 39 year old vine...

Written Notes

Glorious aromas of buckwheat, like cold soba noodles, melding with quince, roasted nuts, tangerine and apricot pith. Always an incredibly intense mid-weighted expression, this iteration is gentler and more refined in a sense, due to immaculate poise and drinkability quotient. I often find this wine a bit too much. Not this vintage. Maritime freshness and a waft of unresolved CO2 carry length. Compact and filigreed. Almost breezy, intuitive of feel and effortless, in the very best sense of the word. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Succulent fruit with gorgeous oak spice on the palate. Sophisticated, oatmeal nose with lots of texture and juiciness. Long, expressive finish. There's lots of dairy complexity, but without slicks of butter. Excellent clarity of fruit on the mid palate – grapefruit, pineapple, melon
