Description
This wine is packed with freshness and hints of minerality, enriched with crisp, ripe pears, honeysuckle, orange peel, apples and honey. The palate is linear and features a tight minerality, with a creamy, fruity finish of great length.
The aim during picking and Vinification was to create a wine of freshness and elegance, without any overripe or overbearing flavours. The oak is well integrated and provides the perfect structure for the fruit components of the wine.
