The Review:
Gary Walsh, The Wine Front - 96pts
"This year the Long Flat vineyard (now known as Johnno’s) was bottled separately, so this is Short Flat vineyard only (or mainly). Its quality is palpable. Round and rich, yet remarkably focussed and minerally. It’s veering towards white peach along with squashy lemon and lime. The significant feature of this wine, however, is its ability to combine restraint with a multi-layered mouthfilling richness. The length and balance is impeccable with a very dry lemon rind and spice finish. You can drink this now with pleasure, although obviously the best is yet to come. I reckon it’s the best Vat 1 since the 2006, since the 1999, since the 1994. The pedigree on offer at this price point is almost laughable."
