Description

This wine has a bright green gold colour with a depth of viscosity. The essence of this wine is the harmony between the various layers of aromatic Sauvignon and the complexity of the winemaking process which adds finesse and structure. With subtle citrus and a touch of varietal zest, the wine has layers of lemon curd and subtle vanilla from the new and mature French oak barrels. The hand picking, whole bunch pressing and delicate juice extraction leads to a wine of purity, subtle palate of stone fruit and white flowers with persistence and acid balance that has you coming back for more.
