The Details

Tasting Note A straw-coloured wine with a lifted bouquet of ripe nectarines, brioche, beeswax and toasted almonds. The palate displays stone fruits and honeysuckle along with a nutty complexity from the natural ferments. The palate has good depth and concentration with a refreshingly long finish. This wine has a tight mineral structure and will develop a creamy texture as it matures.
Best Enjoyed With Delicious with leek, mushroom & mustard chicken with herby cauliflower rice.
Treatment Handpicked grapes were chilled overnight before gentle pressing. The wine was entirely barrelled fermented in French oak barriques (20% new) using indigenous yeast. A short period of lees stirring post ferment adds a textural element to the palate.
