95 points The Real Review
“Bright straw yellow with a fine bead and lifted aromas of warm butter, toast and red apples. Sits beautifully on the palate with a fine and creamy mousse that envelopes the tongue and persists long. Fruit weight and savoury complexities have power and intensity but remain in harmony with a fine acidity that drives it all very long to the finish. A fantastic example of fine Australian sparkling wine”. Stuart Knox The Real Review - July, 2022
95 points Wine Business Magazine (July/August 2022)
"A pale bright straw hue declares delightful elegance, restraint and tension, perfectly led by the white fruits of Chardonnay and well supported by the perfume and red fruits of Pinot Noir. Maturation in old barrels does nothing to disrupt its purity, and everything to build layers of creamy texture, harmonising perfectly with cool Tasmanian acidity and fine-tuned low dosage. Hands-down the finest wine from this historic site yet!” Tyson Stelzer - November, 2022

“What a treat! A ripe and juicy peaches and lemon curd with crumble topping sort of wine. Juicy and alluring, it initially belies its beauty and structure, fresh acidity, toasty automatic characteristics and a lingering honeycomb finish. A rich mouthfeel with zingy acidity this is incredibly well balanced. If you love your wines youthful, this still offers a sprightly delight in the glass but it has a capacity for much further ageing. Another cracker from Fred, Rafe and the team.” Curly Haslam-Coates
