Medium to rich palate - Oak influence apparent. More in balance with the oak than previous Delectable note 71 weeks ago. Now exhibiting a mouth perfume of Rose. Can’t see it gaining more complexity with cellaring but it is a tasty wine. Drink last one up to 6 months.

Wood varnish Oaky notes. Could actually taste the oak on the palate so it’s had ample treatment. Also on palate dried cherry. Good effort but the oak is overdone IMO.

Good vintage from an excellent area for Chardonnay. Notes of toasty oak and peach. Powerful full bodied sweet palate. Great example of #aussiechardonnay

Good solid Yarra Valley Pinot. Expected more for the vintage and price of $48. Good mouthfeel in the fuller style. Next in a year. 17.5.

Nice. Not a wine for the long haul I suspect, but lovely and brightly red fruited after a splash in the decanter for now.

Exceptional. Raspberry and oak. Young, so gave a decent decanting time and rewarded for it. Very much looking forward to trying this again in 2025..
