This 100% Chardonnay was aged for 54 months on its lees has a complex smoky, leesy, flinty mineral nose that is nuanced with pear, apple, lemon citrus, and biscuit aromas. It's medium-bodied with fresh acidity and a very fine. elegant bead of bubbles that supports the finely textured palate. Attractively flavoured with toasty, leesy, honeyed, autolytic, pear, mineral, and flinty notes in a dry flavour profile. Clean and well-balanced throughout, with an exceptionally long finish that is savoury with accents of apple, pear, and lemon citrus. Last tasted June 2025. Score: 93+ pts
