Tasting Notes
Medium yellow green in colour with silver reflections. Aromas of fine herbal spices and nuances of lovage, underpinned by yellow tropical fruit, grapefruit, lychee and gooseberry with some citrus notes and a hint of passion fruit. The palate is juicy, elegant, and mineral with fresh acidity, underlaid by ripe, pronounced tannins, with some notes of mango and a dark minerality on the lingering finish. This is a white wine with the texture of a red wine that still cries out for further bottle aging. Laid in wooden barrels for 18 months without sulphur, the wine offers an immediate impression of the terroir.
