Tasting Notes
A vivid lift of white currant and passion fruit is immediate on the nose. There are overtones of pea shoot and hint of smoke. On the palate that fruit bursts against a very textured, full and concentrated body. Sweet citrus - think mandarin laced with lime - steals the show while vivid tropical overtones shine. This is a rich, rounded and very expressive wine with enough stuffing to age. An experience.
