Pale straw. Intense and concentrated aromatics of nettle, struck flint, preserved lemon, and grapefruit pith are complexed by subtle peach and nectarine fruit, clotted cream and spice. The palate is again led by citrus/stonefruit, flint, spice and savoury mirerality. Fleshy, textured and long with fine acid - this wine shares many similarities with the style and weight of the chardonnay’s we produce, and cannot be recommended highly enough for lovers of those wines.
The balance, structure and concentration ensure a long life ahead.
"A fumé style, and so good, as it’s textural and luscious yet crisp and dry. It’s savoury and super spicy, a little floral and citrusy, with a dash of lemon oil. Creamed honey and nutty lees bolster the palate, with neat phenolics and acidity pulling the finish together neatly. This is excellent on its own but with food it really shines."
