Classy, restrained, flinty oak states its presence yet with discreet subtlety, allowing the elegant purity of fruit to shine. Seriously structured with vibrantly ripe core of acidity harmoniously balanced by gentle Macadamia nut-like creamy texture, finishing with a chalky twist. A hint of smoky gunflint & crushed stone mineral restraint further adds complexity to the long, layered finish. A wine which cleverly combines energy, confidence & charm. Drinks perfectly at the time of release yet will gain further bottle age complexity if cellared properly. ...
