Lovely golden in colour with a tightly coiled bouquet of elegant and lively, interweaving florals with dried fruit. The palate is fresh and captivating, with notes of chèvre and tart white peach, complemented by slate and salinity in a smooth, medium body. A vein of searing acidity runs through into the long finish.
