From the oldest vines on the estate in the Te Awanga subregion, this opens with a lovely nose of brisk lemon and some flinty reduction, backed by shy notions of apricot. The palate also has a lovely hint of reduction and a rich texture with a phenolic edge of slight bitterness. It shimmers with notions of yellow plum and smoke and finishes long with bright lemon.
