From vines planted on limestone soils, this wine is nice and fresh thanks to 76% fermented in stainless steel - the remainder in new French barriques - and all using indigenous yeasts. Intense and juicy, there's plenty of melon, peach and tropical fruits here, accompanied by some spice and a rich line of pineapple and mango on the finish.
