The 2023 Lenswood Pinot Noir leads with cherries and strawberries, redcurrants and peppercorns. There's a hint of spice and lift from the whole bunches—one assumes—on the middle palate, which also contribute some attractive stalky texture. I find the finish to be firm and a little tart, with a smattering of clove and woodsy spice. The clone 114 fruit comes from a lovely vineyard site at 500 meters in elevation in Lenswood, in the Adelaide Hills, planted in 1999. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Erin Larkin, Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Plenty of work has gone into the 2023 Chardonnay Lenswood Vineyard. A strong lead of smoky matchstick underpins subtle creamy layers of melon, grapefruit and French oak. The palate reveals admirable flavour complexity in an understated style as creamy acidity draws out a savoury, fine-boned finish. Angus Hughson, Vinous
