“Lightly toasty nose. Touch of orange pith. The power and concentration emerges on the palate but in embryonic form. It's all structure and promise at the moment. Drink 2015-2025.“ – 17.5/20 points, Jancis Robinson

Pale straw. The bouquet of this elegant yet powerful Chardonnay displays fresh pears, beeswax, citrus and white nectarine fruits with underlying hints of oatmeal, nougat and roasted almonds. Full bodied packed with pears, white fleshed stone fruits and zesty lemony / grapefruit flavours.There is a lovely complexity with a creamy texture derived from lees stiring and mealy characters in the background; the taught mineral structure, intense fruit and bright acidity combine to focus the wine perfectly with a lovely lingering fruit finish.

“A spicy and mineral-suffused nose of green fruit and rose petal is trimmed in enough wood that it vacillates between more than subtle and less than intrusive. The big, rich, powerful and mineral-driven flavors have already eaten the wood though and the length here is so impressive that it is easily the most persistent wine in the entire range. A knock-out with superb cellaring potential.” - 92-95 points, Burghound

''05 JH-96: Restrained elegance and length; grapefruit, nectarine and melon with a near-invisible web of oak; extreme length.
'06 WS-91: Ripe and broad, yet tight enough to remain balanced and elegant as the spicy pear, quince and smoky fig flavors spill through the long, refined finish. – 91 points, Wine Spectator Magazine

“…classy and sophisticated flavours are at once big, rich and intense but with refinement on the wonderfully understated, pure and gorgeously long finish.” - 91-93points, Burghound

“An expressive and relatively pungent nose of straw, hazelnut, orchard fruit and freshly grated lemon zest precedes rich, full and generous flavors that are more focused than those of the Beaune with a seductive mouth feel and excellent intensity on the longer, perfumed and sappy finish. This is a very fine villages and recommended. ”- 89 points, Burghound

''07 RP-92: "A Chartreuse-like note of herbal and floral distillates, with prominent buddleia and wisteria rises from the glass, ushering in a luscious palate suffused with ripe peach, bitter-sweet floral perfume, high-toned, resinous herbs, peach kernel bitterness, and a nearly ineffable, tactile sense of minerality" - 92 points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate.     

Medium green-yellow. An expressive nose displays intense aromas of nettles, gooseberry, flinty minerals and discreet toasty oak. Concentrated and opulent, with juicy, very ripe mango and lichee flavors giving a sweet impression to this dry wine. Medium to full in body, with edgy but well-integrated sauvignon acidity. Subtle vanilla, toast and yellow bell pepper notes linger on the finish.

Brilliant, deep colour with golden hints. Very intense bouquet of pineapple, mango and dried papaya with coconut milk and vanilla notes and a hint of almond on the finish. A very harmonius, rich and finely oaked wine, with remarkable length.

''06 RP-95: Earthy on the nose with hazelnut and butterscotch developing with time. Elegant, with perfect acidity and a harmonious, cohesive finish inflected with apricot and white peach. Very refined, this would challenge the superiority of many white Burgundy wines.
KU003-06: BC-94: “Powerful, sophisticated and complex Chardonnay with an appealing mix of mineral, citrus, bran biscuit and toasted nut flavours. Accessible now but with the potential to develop even greater complexity with bottle age. ” – 94 points, Bob Campbell
