Critic's Rating 91 pts

2021 was a difficult vintage. After a fabulous growing season, the rain kept coming throughout harvest time. Careful vineyard management and quick picking decisions made for some quality fruit to be proud of, despite the weather. This Chardonnay, grown on our Estate Vineyard in the warm St. David’s Bench, always produces a full-bodied, richly textured wine.

This is a very lean, almost sharp edged chardonnay packing quite intense flavours. The nose shows quite intense, compact lemon, apple, leesy/yeasty notes and subtle parmesan and nuttiness. It is medium bodied, racy and juicy, with very lemony acidity. The length is excellent. I thought of breaded calamari as a great match. Tasted July 2023
