"Beautifully ripe and elegantly complex, the wine shows golden peach, rockmelon, nougat, vanilla and hazelnut aromas on the nose, leading to a succulent palate that is supple and silky. It is generous and flavoursome, while remaining balanced and structured with a lingering creamy finish. At its best: now to 2021" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2018

Golden and brilliant in the glass this wine is full bodied and softly textural with good weight from ripe fruit balanced by judicious use of toasty oak. Dry and finishing long with a hint of toasty oak this well balanced and attractive wine combines the best of ripe Marlborough fruit with complexity and weight from the barrel.
