From vines that are 20+ years old, the elegant, medium-high to highly aromatic nose is fresh with ripe tropical fruit, melon, citrusy, and grapefruit pith aromas with touches of savoury spice. On the dry, medium+ bodied palate it has very nice aroma replays on the flavour profile that are joined by nuances of gooseberry, grassy, and pea pod. It has fresh, juicy, and tangy acids, while tropical fruit, melon, and white peach notes linger on the long, crisp finish. Tasted May 2024.
