Tasting notes
Rich gold in colour, concentrated but right from the first nose you feel a fresh character. This is a gorgeous wine full of joyful generous complexity. Rich citrus and lemongrass, with balance and a great shot of acidity across the bows. Lovely grip, has really held its character and this is a perfect moment to drink. 100% new oak. 27hl/h yield

Captivating nose combines green papaya, mango, coconut, vanilla, minerals, dried rose, tangerine oil and white pepper. Densely packed and youthful but already shows a silky texture and considerable early appeal owing to its sexy sweetness of fruit. Subtle notes of smoke, herbs, spices and flowers carry through onto the rising, palate-dusting finish. A superb white wine from this estate.
