Winepros' Notes

Wine background
The former "blue label", a junior brother to the Estate Chardonnay. Produced with the customary finesse of David Lance, placing the accent on varietal fruit rather than oak.

James Halliday Nov 24 2003 Rating: 94 out of 100

Built around grapes supplied by Yarra Valley growers with a long relationship with Diamond Valley, the very cool vintage and low yields ideal. Fragrant but fine, the tangy bouquet has melon and citrus aromas, the palate with irresistible pure fruit; great line and length.
