James Suckling: 98 Points

One of the richest most expansive chardonnays from 00 Wines this goes deep in poached apple marzipan and brown butter flavors backed by vivid acidity. So alive layered and concentrated yet light on its feet with moderate alcohol of 13.5%. Drink now or hold. Reviewed by: Jim Gordon Executive Editor

Decanter: 96 Points

With the same Eola-Amity Hills sourcing as the Richard Hermann bottling the Freya Hermann Cuvée spends additional time in elévage spending two full years in barrel. Reductive yet unctuous with a stunning texture owing to the ?Black Chardonnay? methodology that 00 adheres to. Aromas of smoky grilled pineapple petrichor and grilled lemon wedge. The palate is hedonistic with lush tropical fruits deep lemon curd notes and a saline streak that lifts this wine to such great heights. (Drink between 2025 - 2038). - Clive Pursehouse 4/25
