Other Reviews….
The forcefield of the range. The most reticent and yet paradoxically, as with many fine wines, the longest driver of flavour, intensity and ageability. Lemongrass, lanolin and grapefruit zest. Pulpy. Fleshy. Strident length. Athletic. Crunchy and laden with '19-esque slatiness. Drink by 2029.

Other Reviews….
From Clarendon. This is fine gris. With more textural mettle, it would be stellar. Whiffs of baking spice, tarte tatin, pear slushy and shaved almonds skittle along a beam of freshness. Succulence, to balance. A pithy, attractively bitter finish marked with quinine. A superlative vintage of measured wines. This is no exception. Drink by 2024.

A generously flavoured chardonnay, standing out from a leaner pack. Mid to full-weighted, it showcases a panoply of stone fruits melded to dried mango and creamed cashew. A lick of vanillin oak adds texture to a salubrious whole, as the flavours stream long. Drink by 2026.

Wild-yeast fermentation, leaving a touch of residual sugar. Riesling is the winemaker's great strength and passion and it shows clearly each vintage. You could drown in the aromatic beauty of the scent: white flowers, lime, green apple, lemon zest, spice and musk. Dry and stylish acidity (it's the only word to describe the combination of bright and soft acidity) caress the palate, mouth-wateringly so. A touch of barely there sugar helps amplify the depth of fruit. A delight. Drink by 2033.

Pete Bissell gets chardonnay to a level unequalled by any other winemaker in the region. Hand-picked, whole bunch-pressed direct to Louis Latour barriques (20% new) for 45% wild and 55% cultured yeast fermentation, matured for 11 months on lees. Bissell nailed the harvest date of 20 Feb, posing the fruit between citrus and stone fruit, nougat, honey and creamy notes to come in the future. Drink by 2025.

Uplifted scents of white peach, fleshy nectarine and dried honey are complimented by citrusy nougat, biscuity oak and subtle gun flint notes.

Made with the utmost care from hand-picked fruit, whole-bunch pressed to barrel, wild yeast ferment on solids in French barriques (25% new) then matured on lees for 11 months. A balanced mix of stone fruit, citrus to nougat, creamy lees, lemon curd and oak spices. While there's flavour aplenty, it's finely tuned and almost tight with excellent length. Drink by 2023.

Brilliant pale straw colour with glimmeringly green tinged edges and a watery hue. Scented white peach aromas meld into honeyed citrus like characters followed by some cashew, biscuity oak and spicy nougat. Richly flavoured yet light on its feet, a subtle creamy textural feel is perfectly counterpointed by a burst of freshness. Mouthfilling white peach and dried honey flavours interact with cashew, biscuity nougat and spice. Excellent length and balance. Long finish of white peaches, dried honey, citrusy nougat, biscuity cashew like characters and spice. A superb example of modern Australian Chardonnay.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.

Hand-picked, whole bunch-pressed, wild and cultured yeast, fermented on solids in French barriques (31%), matured for 11 months. Everything has been done to make this standout chardonnay in Coonawarra, and indeed it's a very smart wine by any standards. The balance of fruit flavours (stone fruit/citrus), and the integration of oak (the mouthfeel) are impeccable, but its X-factor comes with its length. Drink by 2024.
