2008 Reserve Chardonnay
95 points. "A fragrant and multifaceted array of stone fruit and citrus on the bouquet is followed by an exemplary palate, with intense and juicey fruit backed by citrussy acidity; sensitive oak handling a plus."
Winestate Nov/Dec 2009
2008 Reserve Chardonnay
4 stars. "Lovely integration of peach fruit aromas with a slight toastiness and ageing characters. Lovely balance of spicy, yeasty palate with plenty of creamy malo."

94 points. "Lifted herbal/grassy aromas; similar flavours with touches of gooseberry and passionfruit; has very good thrust and length."

2007 Reserve Chardonnay
94 points. "Sophisticated winemaking has balanced the nectarine and melon fruit with enough French oak to provide complexity and balance, but still allowing the fruit to drive the wine."
Winestate Sept/Oct 2009
2009 Sauvignon Blanc
"Distinct gooseberry and lychee aromas, which follow through onto the palate. Great flavour length with nice dash of lemon peel."
Ray Jordan, The West Australian March 28, 2009
2007 Shiraz Cabernet

"Immensely powerful concentrated aromas of cigar box, blackcurrant and black olive with rich dark plum nuances. The palate is deep and richly textured with some minerally cabernet emerging. It's well structured and controlled, with firm tannins and perfectly weighted oak. 92/100"

Winestate Mar/Apr 2009
