Tasting Notes

Appearance:
Pale straw with a soft golden hue — bright, clean and inviting.

Aroma:
Expressive and layered with:

• lemon zest and citrus
• pear and apple
• subtle floral lift
• hints of wet stone and mineral nuance

Fresh, lifted and quietly complex.

Palate:
Dry, textural and beautifully structured — a modern Semillon style.
Expect layers of:

• citrus and lemon
• pear and green apple
• gentle phenolic grip adding texture
• mineral backbone running through the palate
• balanced acidity providing freshness and length

The wine shows texture and purity, moving beyond a simple fruit-driven style. The use of concrete fermentation helps build both texture and minerality.

Finish:
Long, clean and mineral with lingering citrus and a subtle savoury edge.
