Time is all you ever need. Thankfully it's smaller than I remember.

We picked this wee Chardy up from the Heydon cellar door in Margaret River on our Top Drop Tour nearly 2 years ago now. I stashed it at the bottom of the cellar so we could keep it, at least for a little while anyway.

Sandy shade of yellow with crystal clear clarity on the eye. Really interesting aromas on the nose, I was picking up smoked tropical fruits, vanilla pods, baking spiced cream and some floral notes. First impression of the palate was its freshness, for a 7 year old Chardy it's still a baby! Smooth creamy mouthfeel with grapefruit, guava and oaked fruit flavours and a decent length finish. Lovely fine elegant structure.

Gorgeous stuff. Supple and inviting. Definition and clarity but with a relaxed vibe. Pear, apple, buttered toast, a citrus line on the palate and a mouthwatering, lingering finish. A concentrated intensity. Still years ahead of it.
