Cork

A fusion of two Polygon components within Alkina’s Greenock vineyard pulls together a sublime chorus of subtle notes. Showing a shade less body weight than previous vintages allows the flavours to slide more easily, piqued by a pleasing savory lick at the finish. There are more lean, crunchy red berries in the mix, ahead of black olive flanking sharp blackberry and a sprinkling of allspice atop rich blueberry. It’s the seamless flow of the combined Polygon parcels that impresses the most, its gently ebbing tide of different flavour and texture notes washing gently, teasingly across the palate. So seductive.
