White

Green apple, ginger, orange rind and lemon notes on the nose. Smooth and weighty on the palate, the initial mouthwatering acidity is covered by the intensity of the fruit giving an oily sensation with peach, apricot and lemon flavours. Less vibrant than expected given the pH but remains cool and focussed. Lightly fruited, clean and long. Not so crisp but there's excellent flavour intensity, just more lean, but long length, so there’s potential here. Harvest 25 August - 13 September. Ageing nine months in two and three-year-old oak. 3.25pH. 6,000 bottles
