Screwcap/Stelvin

White

Bold and buttery, this is as full as you can get on the nose, which is also perfumed and intense, with notes of tuberose, jasmine, red gum honey, sandalwood and spice. Generous and modern in style, showing expensive oak, exuberant gun flint, a touch of spice, powerful and warm fruit, while a fine mineral splay drives tension. Funky yet prestigious and classy, it's akin to a Vivienne Westwood creation – punk couture with layers of softness laced over a bracing structure. The palate is sublime, with stone fruit, marzipan, amaretti, rose hip, raspberry, dried floral notes and an ever-so-fine fringing of umami charred toast. It's a statement wine, yet it’s far from style over substance but one of consideration and effort. Whole bunch, new and seasonal barriques, full solids, wild ferment, full malolactic. Matured on lees with no sulphur for five months, followed by 10 months oak ageing and finishing in tank.
