‘A delight’ – Wine Front 94 Points!

Wine Front 94 Points!

I feel like we make wine better in the hard years, you have to think more, pay more attention, work a little more. Then take a look at 15 and things just happened, but it was easy, and the wines were great but not as inspiring to me. The 2016 harvest was really good for cabernet and chardonnay, though we made Relfexion in 2016 too, but that was more about upping the quality of the Mount Mary, offers winemaker Sam Middleton. Small parcels that didnt make Triolet make this wine, predominately off younger vines here too.

Oyster shells, citrus, citrus blossom, whiffs of vanilla. Comely perfume here. Fine and bright in the palate, quite slinky but also has a neat chalky edge. Very long too pristine in flavours with just a hint of nutty savouriness. A delight. Totally.”
