Nose of hay, just-ripe lemon, hint of orchard blossom and very subtle tropical, honeydew lemon hint. Delicate, green-white fruit which leads onto a restrained, savoury palate. Medium-bodied, the delicacy and just-ripe fruit tones have more strength, lift and energy than is first apparent. The finish is clean, floral, grassy and lemon pippy in a precocious young Semillon way, but it lasts and is delightful while it lingers. Tight, refreshing and geared for food.
