Pale Colour. Intense white peach, white apricot marzipan tonic water aromas with honey vanilla notes. Beautifully balanced wine with fresh stone fruit, lemon curd flavours, fine lacy textures, superb creamy complexity and underlying marzipan vanillin notes. Finishes long and mineral. A top-notch Adelaide Hills Chardonnay with amazing flow, clarity and persistency. Drinking beautifully now. Why wait? Drink now - 2028. Rating: 98 Points; Andrew Caillard MW

Fermented wild in new and used 500L puncheons; matured for 10 months with the occasional stir. Among the country's varietal exemplars. Transparent and tensile with an additional nuance of flavour, vibrato and mineral cohesion etched into the firmament of complexity each year. White peach, toasted hazelnut, jasmine and nougatine teem long. The oak, nestled beautifully, serves as a framing backdrop rather than the centrepiece. A wine of precision, intense flavours and immense class. Date: Nov 2022; Drink to: 2032; Price: $95.00; Alcohol: 13%; Rating: 96 Points; Ned Goodwin MW; James Halliday Wine Companion

The two best (of four) Dijon clones (95 and 76), the glorious ’21 vintage, the experience of Martin Shaw, and the ever-cool Lenswood site have delivered a beautifully made wine of sheer beauty. It has a long life ahead at the top of the class. Date: Nov 2023; Alcohol: 13%; Price: $95.00; Drink by: 2041; Rating: 97 Points & Top 100 Wines for 2023; James Halliday Wine Companion
