Pale straw colour with green hues. The nose is complex and appealing. There are fruit characters in both the stone fruit and citrus spectrums. There are also toasty nuts and mealy characters, all backed by quality French oak.
The wine shows some generosity on the front palate, dominated by citrus fruit characters. The mealy texture and oak influences provide good weight and complexity through the mid palate. A crisp acid structure gives a powerful, long and clean finish, which persists in the mouth.
 
What the critics think
2008 – “The wine combines textural and flavour complexity with a steely core of acidity; nutty characters are the background to stone fruit and grapefruit flavours; the balance is very good, and the wine will only get better. Two trophies Sydney wine Show 2010.” Rating; 94 points
James Halliday – The Australian Wine Companion - 2011
 
2008 –“Cool label and a cool chardonnay wine from the ever-impressive, quite-achieving Diletti family. Super-fresh, floral and nectarine, some citrus and bath-powdery fragrance. The palate’s pinned in place with zesty acid crunch, some crunchy stone fruit flavour and a wash of spice through the finish; really bracing and fresh” Rating; 93 points
