Description / Reviews

// 100% Chardonnay from 2018 base vintage (20% reserve wines)

Aged on lees for over 5 years before disgorgement late 2024

3.5g/L dosage

"Light straw colour, toasty developed bouquet, very Champagne-like, creamy, slightly honeyed. But it's also very complex for its station, revealing a big proportion of aged reserve wines. Quite high acidity, which refreshes the palate and balances out the dosage liqueur. Clean, dry finish. Very good length and balance. A very smart wine." - 96 Points, Huon Hooke, The Real Review 

"Complex style offering some richness too. Honey and nuts, white peach, lemon zest, oyster shell and salt. It’s dry and saline, some toast and nuts, with balanced acidity, a gentle grip to it, a light prickle of dense bubbles, and a saltine cracker finish of excellent length and dryness. Very good. It’s a style I like, savoury, but not at the expense of freshness and drinking appeal." - 94 Points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
