  2010 Semillon

Light straw-green; has remarkably good varietal flavour with citrus and the barest hint of stone fruit; the balance and length are not in question

Rating 90

2010 Chardonnay Pales straw-green; some exceptional vineyard management needed to produce a chardonnay with such brightness and freshness to its citrus and nectarine fruit in a region such as this – and win a silver medal at the Australian Small Wine Makers Show 2010, a strongly contested competition Rating 90
  2009 Cabernet Merlot   Rating 88
