Details

Upon release the colour is a vibrant yellow gold. The nose is youthful and perfumed with grapefruit and tight lemon and lime characters. There is a background of mix peel that provides a clue to the intense and complex characters found on the palate.

The unctuous luscious wine coats the mouth with an explosion of exotic and intense fruit including yellow peach, quince, green melon and a wonderful lemon butter nuance. There is a long spicy note before it finishes with a lingering and refreshing green mango character and lovely minerality.

Drink it now for its lively fruit characters or cellar for five to 10 years and expect it to take on delicious marmalade and dried fruit characters.

Ever the prankster, Chief Winemaker Chester Osborn has stepped outside the usual sticky suspects of straight Riesling and Semillon to make a Chardonnay Semillon blend. It may look like a normal sticky, but look again, because when done well, sticky Chardonnay can be majestic.

The fruit characters are vibrant and refreshing making it a perfect accompaniment to dessert, a fruit platter or a selection of cheese.

Already great drinking, it will age well over the next 5 to 10 years adding complexity which will offer great versatility in serving options.
