A lovely example of an aged Chenin, crafted biodynamically by winemaker Bob Cartwright. Luscious honeyed nutty notes of redgum and toasted almond. There is so much going on here. Layers of nougat, hints of gasoline, sweet honeysuckle blossom, heady perfume and yet still a delightful freshness. There’s life and lift, zesty and zippy bursts reminiscent of the little puff of citrus oil when slicing into a perfectly ripe lemon. A lovely crushed gravel and wet stone minerality too. The palate is bone dry, savoury and juicy with crystalline fruit. Mouthwatering in its concentration and tension of salinity and acid. Detailed, layered, textured and lively. It feels like the first ocean dip of the summer. A vibrant tangle of salt and fresh seaweed umami flavours. Drinking perfectly now.
