"Bright in the glass, the calciferous nature of the soils on which this wine grows is unmistakably evident. Lemon curd, custard apple, lime and an omnipresent shell-like character are all there. Clean definition through the palate provides depth of flavour, balance and an underlying power throughout. There is freshness here too, which in a 7 year old wine is a pleasure to see. The wonderful palate length is aided by balanced, soft acidity with the amalgam of flavours lingering throughout the mineral backbone. A thrilling wine." - Belinda Thomson, Vigneron
"Wow stuff. The measure of freshness, crisp, crunchy acidity and the benign decay on hand, is stunning. Waxy texture with glassy edges, an almost honey nut cornflake character married to brown lime, ginger biscuit, green apple, pink grapefruit. There's savouriness rolling through, light toffee sweetness, the friskiness of briny minerality too. It paints a picture in layers and texture, energy and depth. An almost prickly hiss of fizz under everything. The drinkability is through the roof. Alongside, a distinct feel of complexity; the essence of that that there is concentration of fruit and age, a wonderful mesh of the maturing characters alongside inherent brightness and lift. Sheesh." 97 Points. Mike Bennie - The Wine Front
