    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    If Alpine is a vertical line, Horseshoe commands the palate with a sense of horizontal breadth and depth. The very tiniest touch of flinty reduction offers up a wonderful balancing element to the golden fruit, as the mid palate broadens out and caresses the tastebuds before zipping up for the intense and palate staining finish. Concentrated, powerful, intense, with a powerful core of dry extract and grip, this has all the elements needed to blossom in time into something truly grandiose. Just generally magnificent.

    Critic Reviews

    Antonio Galloni,
    Vinous
    The 2021 Chardonnay Horseshoe Vineyard is a powerful, explosive white that demands patience. Crushed rocks, lemon peel, white flowers, mint and slate race across the palate, making a strong first impression. A huge mid-palate of fruit lies beyond, just waiting to unfurl. This tightly-coiled, mineral-drenched Chardonnay will be superb, in a few years' time.
