White

Vanilla, caramel, warm honey, wax, dried herbs, flint, cool white peach and apple aromas. Explosive and alive, gorgeously clear and clean – there’s nuance and complexity here – but it’s lightly presented and delicate for Smith. Quite a streamlined style but actually the acidity is really well balance and not at all pronounced or too sharp. Clarity and cool freshness. Beautifully delineated, sophisticated with more tension and drive and energy than 2023. I like this a lot, a tiny dollop of sweet, tropical fruit with bitter elements too. The harvest for whites began on 20th August until 2nd September. A yield of 18hl/ha.
