Halliday Wine Companion 96 points.

Pale straw with detailed aromas of white peach, nectarine and grapefruit. Hints of fine spice, grilled cashews, struck flint, clotted cream, oatmeal, white flowers, vanillin oak and stone. There's a wonderful clarity to this wine. You can, should you so desire, sit there and delineate all the individual components: lemon curd and a myriad of other tones. Or you can be happy that it is just so delicious, with scintillating minerally precision and drive, finishing dry, long, grapefruity and creamy. A great release and one of concentration and focus. 96 points.

GARY WALSH, THE WINE FRONT 2022

Tasted alongside the 2019, and while 2020 was a cooler vintage, it also seems to have received a more subtle touch in the winery, which is good. I could be wrong! Subtle wine, all crunch and saline/mineral stuff, discreet spicy oak, pink grapefruit and fennel, fine dusty texture, and a cool feel to it, with salted citrus, and subtle umami flavours, and a long finish that feels good and ‘natural’. Not the power of the 2019, but more stylish, and better to drink. So lovely. 95 points.
