2016 marks a turning point in terms of freshness. Bold and precise, this wine showcases laser-focused acidity and incredibly pure, elegant flavours. Subtle notes of lanolin and underripe Meyer lemon peel mingle with a delicate hint of saffron. The medium-bodied palate is pure and focused, offering a wine of sheer beauty and reserved integrity. It promises to impress further with another decade in bottle. The winemaking at Arkenstone focuses on long, cold fermentations with native yeasts and ageing on lees to preserve freshness and build texture. Sémillon is blended in after the first racking, and fermentations are now partially conducted in concrete eggs alongside barrels.
