Growing Conditions

A lovely, fresh and zingy white with notes of citrus fruit, hawthorn blossom, almond and yellow plum.

A good start of the year with dry weather in spring and early summer. The steady Tramontane wind helped develop and concentrate the grapes. The late summer brought some rain, which gave the necessary acidity required to maintain the fresh and zingy style.

Nose

Very enticing, with hints of hawthorn and peach blossom, and notes of mirabelle plum.

Palate

Bone dry, but also very soft and approachable, this rich, flavourful white has some of the zing of Sauvignon, but with a much smoother, softer palate, and layers of flavour that keep the interest to the last glass.

***Body***: Medium

Appearance

A limpid greenish gold.

Food Pairing

Lovely with chicken, grilled pork, rich seafood dishes and butternut squash risotto.
