"92 out of 100...The most stunning wine of this trio is the 2005 Chardonnay Piccadilly Valley from Adelaide Hills. This beautiful white offers fresh, lively honeysuckle intermixed with hazelnut, spice, orange blossom, and citrus oil characteristics. This well-made, medium to full-bodied beauty should be enjoyed over the next 3-4 years." - WA
"94 out of 100....Pale gold. Gorgeous aromas of tangerine, white peach, nectarine, iodine, pine nut, jasmine and fennel, with a lush buttery overlay and hints of stone, flowers and lees; this could easily pass for high-end Meursault. Spicy, focused and vibrant, but also possesses serious weight and a chewy texture. The lush pear, peach and buttery anise flavors expand and deepen on the extremely long finish, with a late snap of minerality bringing things into sharp focus. Major-league, superconcentrated Australian chardonnay, one of the two best I tried this year along with the 2004 from Giaconda." - Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar
