You ever take a that first whiff of a wine in the glass and laugh because it’s so gorgeous and you *know* it’s going to be great? This is one of those wines. Sea shells, Stone fruit, beeswax, chalk, and walnut oil wrapped up into one spectacular package.

Waxy, good stone fruit, lekon curd, chamomile, sea salt and acid. 70+ year old vines and blend of Chenin and Palimono. Great with food, especially roast chicken and morsels.

Impressive stuff. A touch of oak with fairly rippin minerality and precise fresh fruit. Plus how often do you get to try a field blend of Chenin and Palomino from 75 year old vines.
