Description
- Stonefruit
- Bright zest
- Subtle oak
- Minerality
"A fine bouquet with a sense of purity and place, the use of only older wine barrels ensures the core aromas of this wine are not based on the foundation of oak, but soils and fine fruit with excellent winemaking. Flavours of sweet grapefruit, mandarin, apple and white peach with a fine leesy core that develops palate texture and adds complexity. The palate flavours reflect the bouquet with a definitive acid line, minerality and a dry finish with length and complexity. Best drinking from mid 2025 through 2029" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2024
On the nose there are notes of lemon, red apple, pear, white peach and flint. On the palate, enjoy the rich concentrated flavours, with bright zest balancing the fruit sweetness. Ripe lemon and white peach flavours, with grapefruit on the finish.
