Scented bouquet, with bottle-aged, toasty notes adding complexity. Medium-bodied, with strong, citrusy flavours, hints of passionfruit and lime, and a slightly sweet, crisp finish. Drinking well now.

Delicious drinking from now onwards, this is a full-bodied, sweet-fruited wine with strong, citrusy, peachy flavours, hints of butter and toast, finely integrated oak and good weight, texture and harmony. Fine value.
