Complex nose, white tea, melon and exotic fruits, tea leaves, earthy, truffle hints; palate with flavours of citrus, lemon sherbet, ripe stone fruit and earthy tones, rich structure, bit of tannins, balanced acidity, complex finish. A powerful wine.

Had the classic slightly bitter finish of an orange wine, but the taste resembled more of a Chardonnay

Thank god, success for koshu. Amber, peach, geraniums, and the usual citrus nose. This really makes up for the lack of depth and body in non mac koshu. It's still a light wine but there's an evolution from orange peel, peach, and softer floral flavours into a more chalky citrus finish. Its pretty awesome. We'll done mercian.
