Class Comment: Always a pleasure to judge these entries. The best brackets of the class showed brightness and structural
complexity across all three vintages and clearly demonstrated the cellaring potential of the best that McLaren Vale has to offer. The
entries where the older vintages showed some excessive development for their years were unfortunately all too easily dismissed. I
wonder if we will ever see a bracket of white entered in this class……
