Tasting Note

This wine is bright with a light straw-like appearance highlighted by a light green hue. The subtle aromatics take a couple of swirls of the glass to peel away at the many underlying layers of this intricate wine. Initial aromas of lemongrass and lime lead to bolder aromas of the more tropical spectrum, such as gooseberry and white peach. This elegant wine will greet you with a final bouquet of blackcurrant, citrus and elderflower, as you prepare to take your first sip. The concentrated aromatics carry effortlessly to the palate, where they integrate with a rich and textured mouthfeel. This wine is beautifully refined and elegant with a mineral edge and crisp acidity. The extended lees contact post fermentation gives this wine great weight and length. Made in a classic style, illustrating elegance, texture and freshness, this wine will benefit from a couple of years of ageing under ideal cellaring conditions.

Its perfect balance of acidity contributes to a clean, crisp structure, with an impressive lingering finish. The wine's luminous straw colour, coupled with its lush palate and intricate fruity bouquet, is a testament to the fertile soils in the Constantia valley.
