Tasting Note

The wine displays a brilliant pale straw colour. Aromas of yellow lemon skin and lime blossom interplay with lightly toasted brioche characters, subtle cinnamon and vanilla. The entry on the palate is vibrant with fresh sweet lime, roasted lemon, appealing chalkiness and the lightest note of ginger. The palate has a beautiful silky texture - testament to it being barrel aged on the lees – and a refreshingly dry finish.
