Description
Indulge in a Reserve-level Chardonnay from vineyards in Padthaway with a raft of high point scores up to 96pts. "…a most impressive Chardonnay from the Padthaway region." says Ken Gargett, WinePilot, and Sam Kim Wine Orbit is even more impressed, calling it:"Rich yet refined and alluring, the bouquet shows golden peach, rockmelon, brioche, and stylish oak aromas, followed by a concentrated palate exhibiting outstanding weight and depth. Wonderfully complemented by a creamy texture and fine acidity, making it harmonious and flowing to a long, seamless finish. At its best: now to 2035.96pts" (Sam Kim, Wine Orbit).
"The Reserve centres around ripe fruit for its concentration and presence. Peach trifle, mango lassi and lemon curd. The new oak support is creamy and chai spiced, rather than toasty. The palate follows suit with a real custard middle palate, the richness of yolk and fleshy peach. A very edible wine and one for those that enjoy the curves and breadth of ripe chardonnay fruit. 92pts."(Shanteh Wale, The Halliday Wine Companion).
