Williams' Block Chardonnay 2022
HALLIDAY WINE COMPANION - Jane Faulkner - 95 points
"William’s Block is the flagship and a barrel selection. It’s a very good wine, steely and tight, still coming around and it will. Now it’s running on a skein of fine acidity leaving in its wake the pink grapefruit, woodsy spices and preserved salted lemon flavours. The palate is lightly layered with some creamy, lemon curd and nutty lees, plus oak but all well integrated. Moreish, savoury and mouth-watering." (August 2024)
THE WINE PILOT - Shanteh Wale - 96 points
"Wow she is striking! Pretty white florals and a delicate lace of white peach sorbet and rainier cherries. Shaved young ginger, crushed macadamia and glittering sandstone. There is almost a soft oriental note of frankincense and sage. Pineapple hull and lemon balm. A real slipperiness to the long line of acidity, unmarred by heavy oak use. The wine is light on its feet, a bit like tinkerbell but magical in its fruit purity. A chardonnay that makes you feel optimistic and hopeful. Drink now and will cellar well for the next 4-6 years. A wonderful match for angel hair pasta and diamond shell clams." (June 2024)
WINE ORBIT - Sam Kim - 95 points
"Impressively complex and refined, this is seductively expressed on the nose with ripe nectarine, lemon peel, nougat and savoury pasty characters, followed by a concentrated palate offering excellent depth and seamless flow. It's expansive and wonderfully structured, with a prolonged, alluring finish. At its best: now to 2037." (May 2024)
