93 points Finely composed and charming, the wine shows ripe cherry, floral, olive and warm spice nuances on the nose, leading to a silky-smooth palate that’s juicy and beautifully rounded. Tannins are fine and just right, offering elegant frame and length to this delightfully appealing pinot. At its best: now to 2030 Reviewed: February 2023
From a single, long-established vineyard, made by Tim Knappstein with a lifetime’s experience. Apple blossom and talc aromatics; a fleshy entry with abundant lime/lemon flavours gaining intensity on the finish, where balancing acidity makes its mark. 94 points | $24 | Screwcap | 11.5% alc. | Drink to 2035
90 points Plenty of ripe gooseberry, passion fruit and some floral notes make this an appealing sauvignon blanc. Juicier on the medium-bodied palate, with well-integrated acidity, this gives plenty of pleasure and is less tart than most wines of this category. Drink now.
93 points A serious Adelaide Hills chardonnay, in a very un-showy style. Delicate white-flower and crisp pear aromas with just a whiff of smoke. Very cool, straight and focused on the rather sleek palate, with striking, flinty minerality and fine-grained tannins. Drink or hold.
