The bouquet is floral and fruit driven with citrus and stone fruit aromas. The palate has rich stone fruit flavours, good texture and a persistent long finish. While this wine has been made for current drinking it will build further complexity over the next 3 to 6 years.
Paringa chardonnay is heading in a good direction. There’s plenty of sunny flavour here but it’s juicy and energetic and, simply, good to drink. Pear, citrus, woodspice and stonefruit flavours do pretty much all of the talking, and while there’s no doubt oak it’s tucked neatly away. Good stuff. It’s perfectly pitched.
Light yellow-straw colour, with attractive toasted nut aromas and flavours. It's tight and delicate, restrained and fresh, with good intensity and refinement, the finish lingering on a long time. A gorgeous, appetising wine.08 JUL 2020 Drink 2020–2027

Oak rears at first, but it quickly settles into fine drinking form. Stone fruit, custard apple and cream-caramel characters burst confidently through the palate and on through the finish.
