2002 10X Label Reserve Chardonnay
Ralph
Kyte-Powell Epicure Uncorked 1st July 2003 four and half stars
...'Powerful nose of slightly Burgundian style. Complex winery
influences are now adding nut brittle, pastry and leesy touches to light
stone - fruit character. The texture is smooth and it finishes dry and
long. An uncharacteristically cool spring and summer resulted in low
crop levels, with this fruit ripened perfectly by sunshine and warm
weather through autumn. The palate is intense flavours of grapefruit,
nectarine and spice integrated into a creamy palate of wonderful weight
and texture. Finishes long with refreshing acidity. The colour is green
gold with an alcoholic content of 13.5%.

"This
wine is based on the 1993 and 1998 vintages. The very fine persistent
bead and full mousse are emphatic precursers to the quality of the nose
and palate. It is a complex wine, with vitality and freshness.
Classically yeasty, creamy and floral, the extended lees aging in a
bottle (over four years) has given the intense fruit/acid spine great
texture and nuance." |

"Very
pure and perfumed and deliciously spicy. Similar in some ways to the
1995 with elements of 2000. "...its definition of Pinot fruit and
impeccable balance. Always looks quite Chambolle alongside he 'Block
Five' and this holds true in 2003. Will develop more complexity over
the next 4-7 years." |
