Wine Colour
At release, the wine is a pale straw with a slight green hue to the edge.

Wine Bouquet
Delightful aromas of white peach, nectarines and subtle citrus zest join hints of cashew and cream.

Wine Palate
Fresh flavours of stone fruit combine with a tropical pine/lime characters, cashews and an underlying creaminess from extended lees stirring to deliver a mouth-filling and enjoyable wine. The wine has a clean, elegant palate, a soft acid backbone and long, persistent finish.

Cellaring Notes
This wine can be enjoyed upon release but will reward careful cellaring up to and possibly beyond 2017.
