The Details

Tasting Note Pale gold with slight green-gold tints. Complex aromas of yellow citrus, cut apple, stone fruit and fresh fig with notes of struck flint, brioche and a hint of spicy French oak. Flavours of fresh peach, citrus zest, green mango and roasted hazelnuts are underpinned by a fine creamy texture and flinty bottle complexity. The Heggies minerality which is such a feature of this vineyard leads the wine to an elegant, lingering finish.
Best Enjoyed With Enjoy with pan seared scallops with pea puree and crispy pancetta or potatoes au gratin.
Treatment 46% fermented and matured for 10 months in French oak barriques (28% new, balance in 1 year and older) and 54% of the blend was matured in ceramic wine eggs.

Accolades

Pristine stone fruits, gentle spice and nicely-judged oak
Light straw in the glass with aromas of bright peach, nectarine, green apple and citrus fruits. Hints of clotted cream, struck flint, soft spice, nougat, white flowers, vanillin and stone. Composed and savoury in shape on the palate with a stony lean, pristine stone fruits, gentle spice and nicely-judged oak. I really like the back-end of this wine. There's a real 'sucking on a river pebble' thing going on and a gentle umami ache as it fades off.
