• 2010 Yabby Lake Single Vineyard Pinot Noir

  Tom Carson says of the ’10 wines, “These are the best I’ve ever had anything to do with.” Its a big call, but understandable given the quality of the wines. A blend of clones MV6 (80%), the remainder Pommard, G5V15 and 115; 20% whole bunch; 15% to 20% new French oak puncheons. Strong, deep and clear colour, there is a mix of dark cherry, plum and spice in the core of the palate, fine tannins running throughout giving texture, structure and flavour; glorious drive and length. Drink to 2018.

  Champagne Louis Roederer Cristal 2004

  93/100

  Floral, citrus and spice aromas and flavours are at the forefront of this filigree, delicate Champagne, which is harmonious and well-defined, with a long after taste of roasted nut and toast. Very dry. Drink now through 2028.
