Reviews and other Notes
95 pts James Halliday 2010 Australian Wine Companion A little more Germanic in style, with talc and river stone character coming to the fore; the palate offers an intriguing combination of apple, lemon and some slightly riper more exotic fruit character; the finish is fine and very long, and exhibits destinguished line. Screscap. 11% alc. To 2016.

Pale, green-tinged yellow. Wet stones, lime, grapefruit and green apple on the nose. Talc-y and tightly wound, offering zesty citrus and orchard fruit flavors and a strong undercurrent of zesty minerals. Dry, focused and pure, with strong finishing lift and insistent minerality. This would work with raw oysters.
