"Light, bright yellow with a persistent cordon of fine bubbles. The bouquet is appealingly toasty with some apple but without the greener notes of the original disgorgement, a touch of brioche and bread crust, iced pastries, lemon balm and a hint of honey as well. The palate is where this disgorgement really shines: it has a creaminess of texture and lovely seamless harmony, all the components well integrated, the palate flavours infinitely more complex and delicious, the balance contributing to outstanding drinkability. 96 points." - Huon Hooke, The Real Review

"68/32% chardonnay/pinot noir from a vineyard perched at 980m. This late-disgorged wine, from a cool year, was on lees for an extraordinary 9.5 years, which has endowed it with both depth and remarkable composure. The intensity of yellow citrus – lemon zest and dried pineapple layered with cultured butter richness – speaks immediately to its youthfulness. Marigold florals and a gentle turmeric spice add aromatic intrigue. A forceful line of tingling acidity drives the palate, carrying notes of sugared peanut and buttered toast. Toasted brûlée characters linger with persistence, echoing across a fine, persistent mousse. 95 points." - Shanteh Wale, Halliday
