Semillon 2006 – Honey and toast aromas already at this young age. Very nice palate with good balance. Would probably drink over the short to medium term. 88/100
Semillon 2005 – Lemon, lime, floral – much more primary as expected. Palate is even better on this, good depth of fruit and very good structure. 90/100
Verdelho 2005 – Bright fruit that veers away from the usual tropical spectrum of Verdelho. Nice mouth-feel and importantly, has some great acid. Definitely the most impressive Verdelho I tried on the day. 88/100
Chardonnay 2005 – Clean nose with a touch of oak. Nice fruit sweetness to the palate without being broad. Good length. Drink over the next few years. 88/100
Chardonnay 2004 – Butter and toast. Rich palate that finishes cleanly. Very different style to the 2005. 86/100
Chardonnay Sauvignon Blanc Chenin Blanc Blend 2006 – Grass and melon fruits on the nose. Easy drinking on the palate. 86/100
Shiraz 2002 – Spice, earth and cherry aromas. Palate is simple but easy and ready to drink without too much thought. 87/100
