s another exceptional vintage from the premium, southern grape growing regions of Western Australia. Winter rainfall was close to the long term average. The growing and ripening seasons, while largely warm and dry were punctuated with rains and windy conditions that did affect set and subsequent yields in many varieties. Warm, dry weather from late summer to mid-autumn delivered even ripening for the harvest. A mild end to the season allowed all varieties to ripen perfectly with high natural acidity & intense tight flavours.

Aromatics of waxed lemons & wet limestone belied by citrus blossoms. On the palate the flavour rolls from a citrus & tight clean acid focus with hints of spring blossom & an underlying minerality providing structure, ending with a slight hint of honeysuckle. These attributes bode well for a lengthy and lip smacking life of this wine, still in its early days.
