The bouquet is opulent and intense driven by the semillon, which cropped lower this year.
Fresh, fruit forward character bursting with crushed citrus and nectarine, this is supported by musk and nutty aromatics with a savoury yet subtle biscuit character from fermentation and lees stirring. The intensity of flavour and fruit ripeness of the semillon finishes with lemon and lime blossom and a preserved lemon tang. Medium bodied and nicely weighted in the mouth, the palate is mouth filling and textural, the mid palate has the flesh and generosity of semillon with sauvignon blanc providing aromatics.
