The site was planted in 2017 with guidance then and ongoing from the Latta family of Eastern Peake and a mere seven kilometres down the road from the estate of EP. While younger vines, there’s intensity and interest here in spades.
The first thing that reveals itself is a distinct sense of balance, elegance, refinement. In that, scents of ripe apple, ginger, sea spray, almond, faint nougat and honeycomb. While this sounds richer and riper, it’s curiously crisp and chalky in the palate, exceptionally long, dense in flavour but with cut and thrust of acidity and minerality, in a general sense. Jura, a nod that way, once more from Eastern Peake, perhaps. Just so excellent to drink, overall. 95 points
