A classic struck-match, reductive smokiness to this. Lemon essence and white peaches lend some aromatic charm. A classic, cool-climate expression - natural acidity carrying just-ripe fruit - oak, measured. Exceptional at this price. 04 MAR 2020 Drink 2020–2026

Aromas of white citrus blossom, white stone fruit and grapefruit, with flecks of gunflint, and hints of fresh nuts, almond meal, and white peach skin.The palate is poised with a lovely shape, there is a generosity to the flavour just bursting to get out. The bright acid line running through keeps everything in its place and providing drive and length. There is texture here to from the solids fermentation providing complexity and layers to the wine. Driven, precise, balanced and complex.
