Tasting Notes

Appearance:
Pale straw with green highlights — bright, youthful and inviting.

Aroma:
Lifted and expressive with:

• lemon sherbet and citrus zest
• grapefruit and green apple
• jasmine and floral notes
• hints of wet stone and mineral nuance

Aromatic, fresh and beautifully defined.

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

• citrus and lemon
• subtle stone fruit
• savoury, restrained fruit profile
• gentle phenolic grip adding texture
• bright acidity giving freshness and length

The wine shows energy and texture, with a savoury edge rather than overt fruitiness.

Finish:
Clean, zesty and mineral with lingering citrus and a lightly savoury edge.
