"This is elegantly expressed on the nose showing white stone fruit, lemon peel, almond and oatmeal characters with subtle wet limestone notes. The palate is beautifully weighted and rounded, delivering lovely textural mouthfeel backed by seamlessly integrated acidity. A gorgeous food partner, this is restrained yet flavoursome. At its best: now to 2020" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2018

"Bright, light straw-yellow colour, pale on the rim.  The nose is fresh and full with accessible aromas of savoury white and yellow stonefruits, along with nutty notes, unfolding a little mineral edginess.  Dry to taste and medium-bodied, the palate is fresh and lively with light, savoury white stonefruit flavours along with soft nutty elements and hints of minerals.  The flavours are up-front and enlivened by fresh and crisp acidity, and the wine flows smoothly, carried by the acidity to a moderately long finish.  This is a fresh, bright and up-front dry Pinot Blanc with savoury white stonefruit flavours on a refreshing palate" Raymond Chan, Mar 2018

"Aromas and flavours of white fleshed tree fruits laced with white pepper spices and wild white flowers. Varietal with a twist of citrus alongside apple and pear. Just dry on the palate with a core of spicy white fleshed fruits, medium acidity and just warm alcohol. Balanced, well made and ready" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Mar 2019

Pear, spice and citrus aromas are followed by flavours of stone fruit with a delicate, creamy texture underpinned by mineral notes and refreshing acidity. The wine is off dry in style, a delicate style of Pinot Blanc.
