99 Points from James Suckling.

The team used whole bunch carbonic maceration in beeswax-lined amphorae. Maturation was for six months in new French oak puncheons. Deep yellow in colour, this is Chardonnay with an entirely new level of intensity of flavour. We have notes of lemon curd, cashews, stone fruits, glacéd orange rinds, honeycomb, fresh croissants and citrus.

A wine of immense complexity and great length, notwithstanding the enormous generosity of flavour, it is perhaps the textural aspects which are the highlight here. The wine has power, length, concentration and balance. Extraordinary length actually, and it should drink beautifully for the next fifteen to twenty-five years.
