Light golden in colour. Golden pears, pineapple and honeysuckle seducing the senses. The decadence of golden fruit, richly textured and exceptionally concentrated, with balanced acidity giving this wine a clean finish. |

This wine came from carefully hand picking selected bunches raisin by Botrytis (the noble rot). Then whole bunch pressing for 9 hours, followed by a full stainless steel fermentation for 5 weeks. The final product: showing lovely clean aromatics as well as palate. |

TOP TIP & BEST BUY: Think chunks of honeycomb and youve got the nose sussed. This is a delicious wine, with marmalade, fig and date aromas and a wealth of rich flavours backed by smartly integrated acids. | |
