SF | Light of colour, but with an indulgent slightly oxidative nose; fig paste and walnuts, leaves and a hint of vegemite. The palate is equally evolved, drying a little on the finish. 87
AJ | Mid-gold with ample lemon light. Beginning to be more mushroomy than anything,with the fruits now very subdued. Attractive, but you are definitely now smelling "a mature white". Some oak, too, and a nougatine richness. As always, the general alertness and vivacity of the acid-structured palate brings the wine back to life, and will keep it alive for a few years yet. Harmonious, mellow and satisfying, just beginning to be nutty (walnuts) and those mushroomy notes very attractive: another super glass.Drink Dates: 2024 - 2028. 90
RM | mid-deep in hue with rich, ripe, heady pronounced toasted oak aromas though fairly well integrated; similarly rich tropical character to the fruit with a lovely rich texture mid-palate and a savoury finish still showing freshness and verve if a little overwhelmed by the oak.Drink Dates: 2024 - 2027. 90
