Tasting Notes...
This is a wine of great intensity with fruit and oak both gloriously magnified. On the nose, the vibrant lemon and fuzzy peach aromas are underpinned by vanillin and nutty oak characters. The creamy, mealy notes of the natural yeast add interest and complexity. The palate is rich and creamy with cleansing acidity, while the penetrating finish and flavours linger.
Intense, tinned pea and green pepper on the nose with some richness on the palate from the partial barrel-fermentation and a fresh, herbaceous style with some real complexity.
