Description
Top shelf chardonnay made by Curly Flat, the superstars of Mt Macedon. 2010 was a spectacular season- dream vintage for the vintner…. Stored in our temperature controlled cellar since release from winery… This with some bottle age is drinking magnificently !!
94 points James Halliday ..”Mid-gold-green hue; the bouquet offers a ripe array of nectarine, grapefruit, lemon blossom and struck quartz; the palate reveals a healthy touch of toasty oak that is in balance with the generous fruit and nervy spine of acidity; the length and complexity is both commendable and harmonious.”
95 points Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front… “An excellent show of power, persistence and overall finesse. A top-notch wine with complexity in spades. Needs time to integrate properly but the way this lingers in the mouth is an experience to behold. Grapefruit, sweet preserved lemons, oatmeal and creamy, toasty oak. The finish is smoky, minerally, cheesy. Love the way it combines fruit power and funk, oomph and finesse. A prime contender for Best Curly Flat Chardonnay yet.”
Huon Hooke … “A lighter colour with slight herb aromas. A smooth, rich and fleshy palate – even succulent. Good density, with lovely texture and a long carry. Beautifully balanced.”
Very Limited from a dream growing season
