A leaner, more austere, primary fruit driven style with subtle candied citrus fragrances and upfront fruit sweetness on the drying palate. Some oak evident.

Highly aromatic fruit driven nose reminiscent of quinces and stonefruits. Creamy and buttery in the mouth with excellent fresh pure varietal flavour generosity.

A great wine with the herbal toffee-like aromas showing some oaky notes. Solid complexity to the persistent savoury palate with some great acidity to back it up.

The nose has an interesting integration of musk and mint-like aromas with a roasted nut note. More of the same on the persistent palate with its firm acid support.
