Full bodied Chardonnay with a roller coaster palate. The nose is clean, green apple, peach blossom, and fresh lime. Slight oak presence, with spice and vanilla notes. The front palate moves almost effervescent, sharp, hard peach and young red Apple, crisp... Which transforms into a back palate that finishes long and brooding. honey suckle, ripe white peach, vanilla, and beautiful toast, creamy close. Fascinating wine

Best chardy in Oz land... Golden ripple of confetti and butterfly's, long live the king on his celestial climb to over run Sauvignon Blanc.

I keep coming back to this wine. It's a confetti of grapefruit, honeysuckle, lemon zest, and white peach moving like a lighting storm without rain. A fantastically complex medium plus bodied wine exuding some vanilla oak on the back palate and crisp acidity on the front. The finish is abrupt, but a stunning wine
