An instant MUSEUM STOCK cellar from early vintages of Punch wines. A fantastic way to appreciate how gracefully and deliciously Lance's Vineyard wines age. Very limited quantities, remarkable value!
Grown by us on our historic and iconic Lance's Vineyard, established 1976, one of the oldest vineyard in the Nillumbik subregion of the Yarra Valley. Time has shown this vineyard to consistently be one of Australia's most distinguished sites.
2010 Punch Lance's Vineyard Chardonnay x 1
“A very concentrated and expressive bouquet, with pure grapefruit and nashi pear, combined with a little sizzling bacon fat; the palate is taut, linear, deeply fruited and long, combining power with effortless precision; extraordinarily tasty Yarra Valley chardonnay. 95 Points" Halliday Wine Companion
2010 Punch Lance's Vineyard Pinot Noir x 1
“While deeply fruited and expressive, there is an elegance and spicy complexity that is enchanting; fragrant spiced plums and a lick of star anise; the palate is silky and unctuous, showing the silk and sex appeal of the variety at an early stage of development. 94 Points” Halliday Wine Companion
2010 Punch Lance's Vineyard Close Planted Pinot Noir x 1
"Only 25 dozen of this wine was produced, after the devastation of the 2009 fires; the vines have been able to produce a dark and exotic blend of spice, roast meat and dark fruits; the palate is young, fresh, poised and precise, and while time will see this evolve in to a thing of beauty, as a young wine it is already set to beguile. 96 Points" Halliday Wine Companion
2011 Punch Lance's Vineyard Chardonnay x 1
“Light straw-green; from the estate planting of less than 1ha; it is a wine of exemplary poise and purity, wild-fermented and not filtered, the flavours moulded as much by stone fruit as citrus. 94 Points" Halliday Wine Companion
2011 Punch Lance's Vineyard Pinot Noir x 1
“Estate grown from vines planted '76, '98 and '03, wild yeast-fermented and neither fined nor filtered. Very light coloured, it has unexpected juicy red cherry and strawberry flavours that take centre stage of the palate and on to the finish. 92 Points” Halliday Wine Companion
2011 Punch Lance's Vineyard Close Planted Pinot Noir x 1
“The hue is appreciably brighter, with more purple, than that of its sibling; from a 0.25ha north-facing block planted in 1989 with a 1x1.25m spacing; the red cherry fruits are accompanied by violets on the bouquet, and a fine web of spicy, savoury nuances on the complex, albeit light, palate. A triumph of nature and nurture. 94 Points” Halliday Wine Companion
These wines, being unfiltered, may have developed a slight deposit in the bottle, so settling and careful pouring/decanting is recommended.
