Tried another bottle. Pale lemon with aromas of fresh stone fruits, citrus and floral notes, aged in stainless with plenty of lees contact. On the palate flavors of pear, apple and lemon citrus with lively acidity and blossom notes. Medium finish ending with citrus and creamy mineral character. Drink now while it’s still fresh!

Soft, warm tropical and floral notes coming through on the nose with citrus accents. Coconut, pineapple, mango, vanilla, peach, lemon, jasmine. Moderate acidity, good concentration on the mid palate and a rich finish that is surprisingly viscous. This would be lovely with Thai seafood in a more mild treatment.

The 2014 is a ideal for a drink outside in the late summer. A full blown assault of lemon and oyster shell, best paired with.... Oysters with a touch of lemon.

Spends a few months on the lees
Nose has a soft pear & apple blossom nose.
Taught in the mouth but with a decent freshness, quite sappy finish, drying, wet stone finish

Wine is clear with pale yellow, on nose its citrus, honeysuckle, italian herbs like rosemary, thyme, its beautiful. On palate wine is full bodied, long, elegant structure, balanced acidity. Its not too complex but its delicious. Drink it now and enjoy it while you can! Cheers

Light white gold color. Aromas and flavors of lemons, limes, green apple, minerals and white flowers. Pleasant hint of saline on the very long finish. Ripe and rich. Vibrant acidity. Light bodied and clean. Touch of RS. Great pallet cleanser.

NOSE: melon and mild flower nectar. Tangerine and papaya. A whisp of chili powder.
TASTE: round, good acidity, nice tropical fruit taste - ends with a little mild custard and minerals. I like it. 89.
