Tasting Notes
Classical Marlborough with aromas of blackcurrant, grapefruit, lime and crushed herbs underscored with complexing hints of tropical fruits and gooseberry. Pure and concentrated with flavours of white peach, boxwood, citrus and smoky, wet river stone notes. The palate is concentrated yet elegant with flavour density and a lingering, precise finish.

"Pungent and new, varietal with a bouquet of fresh herbs and tropical fruits, apple and lemon with nettles and fruit spice. Taut, fresh, saline and fruity with flavours of citrus and apple-passionfruit, fresh and dried herbs, nettles and peach. High acid line will settle over the next 12 months with best drinking from mid 2023 through 2027."
