From the Seville township in the Yarra Valley, Matt Burton and Dylan McMahon suggest this D'Aloisio site is slightly more expressive and forward.
In the glass, the scent of struck match goes hard. Golden straw in appearance, burnt caramel and burnt butter mingle with creamy vanilla oak and fine ginger spice. A fraction richer than its Georges Vineyard sibling, it takes a little time to unfurl before filling the mouth with fleshy white nectarines and yellow peach. Dried pineapple can be seen on day two of tasting. An attractive textural feel lingers well into the night - a wine that certainly grew on me.
Drink now to eight years.
