Wine Description
Lifted and varietal nose with lychee, guava and ripe mango intertwined with nutty notes from extended lees contact. The palate is full flavoured and very textural with a core of ripe tropical fruit balanced by a salty but creamy acid line. More savoury than the aroma allures, this wine finishes with briny phenolics and some flinty wild ferment complexity. A highly flavoured and textural wine that bucks the trend for this variety.
Accolades
James Suckling - 93/100 - Attractive notes of dried wild grass and chamomile with lemon peel and a waxy edge, as well as flinty notes. The palate has a very pure lemon and dried peach core with attractive smooth, nutty build around the central fresh fruit. Nicely crafted. Drink Now.
