Pale lemon color. Medium intensity nose grassy, gunpowder, grapefruit, fennel, gooseberry, slightly creamy. A little reduced (screwcap) lacking complexity — 4 months ago

Wonderful wonderful expression of Chardonnay from Mac Forbes clearly on a great site and judicious winemaking. Wish I’d decanted for longer as the flavours just kept developing... — 3 years ago

Delectable told me I drank this exact wine 4 years straight after it had been bottled.
4 years later and my love was rekindled.
Such a rad and fun Riesling, tickles the senses. — 6 years ago

Light cherry red in colour. Cherry and raspberry together with a jubey confectionery note on the nose and palate. On the palate “bigger” than your normal Yarra Vally Pinot. Winemaking Notes: 10% whole bunch, partially de-stemmed - a portion foot stomped. Open fermenters - matured for 12 months in old oak. Indigenous yeast; No filtration, no fining. — a year ago

Definitely a unique style of Riesling on display here. Bold and confident with beautiful, exotic fruit on the nose. The fuller bodied palate perfectly balances a dash of sweetness with zingy acidity and tasteful oak. Impressive at $35.

More info: Small plot two hours north of Melbourne in the town of Caveat. The vineyard is a pure granite shelf at 2000 feet elevation. (Obviously) 8 g/l RS with 8.9 g/l TA. Unfined. Matured in oak on the lees. 3360 bottles. — 3 years ago

Ripping acidity balancing out the off dry sweetness. Tennis balls and apples. Delicious. — 4 years ago

Limited notes from my 70th birthday. From magnum. A classic Yarra Valley Cabernet Blend which is early in its drinking window. Medium bodied with red stalky tomato leaf savoury fruits. — a year ago

2nd go round on this guy. A light garnet in color. Very subtle nose. A lighter style Pinot that was very complimentary to our salmon. More of a delightful experience the second time around. — 5 years ago
