“The Single Site Chardonnay is characterized by pure, stark acidity that races through the fruit. The wine is often pure, crystalline and tense—almost brittle (yet the length of flavor and composure of fruit is striking). The acidity, come to think of it, could be likened to glass shards, and the wine can often be quite distinct in a masked lineup because of these elements. So, this 2022 Single Site Chardonnay is piercing and tense, with a lacy, light web of fruit/acid/phenolics in the mouth. 2022 was a warm season in Western Australia, and the Chardonnays from Margaret River seem to be possessed of softer, juicier acidity than in many seasons past. It reminds me of 2014. This Chardonnay does not seem to have that "soft, juicy" acidity so much as it seems to be dominated by the stark character of the vineyard in profusion. I'd say the bottle is screaming, "Don't Touch Me!" Wait a year or three for it to realize itself. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.”

The 2021 Single Site Chardonnay is tight, tense and spiny, punctuated by a flow of crushed nuts and brine that weaves its way through the fruit. It has lovely, pristine length of flavor through the finish. This is a very elegant wine. The acidity is as this wine usually is: piercing and scintillating. Here, it has settled into a vibration rather than a sonic boom. There is less of the "don't touch me" vibes of the 2022 and more acquiescence and composure here. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.

This 2020 Single Site Chardonnay is a ripping wine. It has settled into a wine of elegance, completion and satisfaction and speaks equally of crushed nuts, preserved citrus, brine, fresh cut fennel/aniseed and other leafy things (tobacco, saltbush, sage, etc). It's a beauty—salty, fine, powerful in its way, with energy. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
