Philip Rich - Halliday Wine Companion
From the Willowlake vineyard in the Upper Yarra. Whole-bunched pressed to French hogsheads and aged in 30% new French oak, 10% mlf. A luminous green gold. Reticent at first, this blossomed with a few minutes in the glass to reveal aromas of perfectly ripened nectarines and white peaches, grilled cashews and attractive (not overdone) reductive, struck-match notes. Gently textured, this silky and persistent wine is tightly structured and while it's totally enjoyable now, there's little doubt another six to 12 months will see it improve further.

James Suckling
A fruity chardonnay with sliced-apple, lemon-curd and toasted-almond character. Medium-bodied with fresh acidity providing a delicious, zesty and crunchy finish.
