Erin Larkin
The 2024 Estate Chardonnay is floral and tightly coiled, with a scratched lime backbone. It`s not as complex as the Ray`s Road tasted alongside, yet it`s utterly composed and restrained. It is mineral and very good indeed. This was tasted as a tank sample prior to filtration and bottling. 90-92 points

Is the 2024 Chardonnay Estate the best ever here? Quite possibly. It displays excellent concentration, especially considering this is `just` the estate wine. The 2024 is absolutely banging with intensity, tension and punch. There`s a lot going on for your money. Expect a lightly infused brightness with scintillating citrus and integrated nutty layers and complexity. Plenty to unravel. 92 points
