Wine Colour
At release, the wine is a pale straw.
Wine Bouquet
Delightful aromas of white peach and nectarines join subtle hints of cashew and cream.
Wine Palate
Fresh flavours of stone fruit combine with a touch of nectarine, cashews and an underlying creaminess from extended lees stirring to deliver a mouth-filling and enjoyable wine. The wine has a clean, elegant palate and long, slightly warming finish.
Cellaring Notes
This wine can be enjoyed upon release but will reward careful cellaring up to and possibly beyond 2012.

Lisa Perrotti Brown, Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, December 2010
2009 Estate Chardonnay give a good intensity of ripe golden delicious apple, white peach and poached pear aromas. Medium bodied with medium-high acid, it has a medium-long, purely fruited finish. Drink it now through 2013.

Western Australian, February 2011
Excellent value-for-money chardonnay in the under $20 category. Has a nice balanced mix of creamy peach fruit, a little edge of citrus and some nice French oak. Has a light creamy texture and a lingering pleasing finish. A wine for the short term.

Wine - Three of the Best
A thoroughly enjoyable Chardonnay with fresh flavours of peach, citrus and tropical fruits. The winemaker has given it a cellar life of three to five years if you'd like to put one down which I recommend.

Ultimate Wine Challenge - New York, May 2011
Outstanding
The nose is wonderfully expressive with scents of ripe peach, lychee, mango, almond butter and pineapple with accents of vanilla. The palate confirms the nose offering a generous fruit melange with a generous dose of wood.
