A single vineyard wood-aged wine, this has spice and peppered apple aromas. It is an impressively rich wine, smooth and showing a rounded texture.

90 Wine Spectator

Sleek and salty, this mouthwatering white shows a pleasing creaminess that expands on the palate, carrying finely woven flavors of baked white cherry, mandarin orange peel and slivered almond, with a hint of dried mint. Drink now through 2027. 650 cases made, 30 cases imported.

Product Description:

"Handpicked grapes into small boxes and carried to the winery in a short period of time. Very soft pressing of the whole destemmed grapes. Long cold clarification. Fermentation in new 400-litre Frenchoak barrels. Ageing in these barrels for 9 months with bâtonnage on the whole lees. 12 months ageing in bottle.Complexe and austere nose. Hints of wild flowers and hay along with a delicate minerality remembering wet stone. Some hazelnut and vanilla coming from the oak fermentation and aging. On the palate arefreshing acidity and verticality. A touch of smoke ending long and elegant." Winery
