AWARDS/REVIEWS:
95/100 - Vino Masters
"Pale straw with bright green-silver flecks, showing crystalline clarity and youthful vibrancy. The nose is fragrant and complex, offering white nectarine, white peach and fresh citrus zest, layered with subtle struck match, almond meal and wet stone minerality from wild fermentation. On the palate this is richly textured and beautifully balanced. Generous white nectarine and stone fruit sit at the core, balanced by fine creaminess and a distinctive mineral thread. Bright acidity provides excellent lift and tension, cutting through the creamy texture and leading to a long, precise and energetic finish.
A standout Margaret River Chardonnay that showcases the purity and finesse of hand-picked, estate-grown fruit. Whole cluster pressing and wild fermentation have delivered impressive texture, complexity and refreshing drive."
