Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"Aromas of citrus pith, lime and grapefruit zest and hints of jasmine tea, fennel and basil. A medium-bodied wine with flinty, almost salty notes, passionfruit flavours and a dry finish.

Grapes were machine harvested in cool conditions, de-stemmed and lightly pressed with minimal skin contact. Clear juice was tank-fermented at low temperature using neutral yeast strains to allow the powerful fruit flavours to dominate. I blended in a portion of whole bunch pressed, high solids, and wild yeast barrel ferment to add subtle texture and complexity."

Rated Outstanding & 96/100 Cameron Douglas MS, October 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"A rather fantastic bouquet with layers of salinity and dried herb, spice and ripe citrus fruits. There’s also a peach and white pineapple fruit suggestions as well minerality and dried florals. On the palate, a dry wine with a textured mouthfeel from acidity, super fine fruit tannins and some lees, freshness and style. Then the fruit flavours return adding core flavours to a fine finish. Best drinking from 2024 through 2027+."
