The 2022 Light of The Night mixes dried apricots with candied almonds, mint and butterscotch. It displays amazing weight while maintaining fantastic balance as notes of raw honey mix with cashew and spiced orange. This finishes impossibly fresh and medium in length, leaving notes of poached pear and spice. Light of The Night finished at a massive 618 grams of residual sugar per liter yet shows amazing harmony.

The 2022 Viognier is wonderfully perfumed, mixing fresh apricots with mint leaf, sage and dusty florals. It's soothingly round yet crisp and vibrant in feel, with silken textures and masses of ripe orchard fruits complemented by a tinge of sweet spice. Minerality comes through on the finish, taking on a slight tropical mango flair without compromising its perfect balance. Simply stunning. (EG)
