It's so racy with its dousing of lemon and lime juice, zest and pith. It's really dry, yet has an appealing shape to the palate as in not all lean and mean. Blossoms on the finish.

Fermentation in a used 5400L French oak vat, the addition of 2% Muscat of Alexandria, and the retention of 5g/l of residual sugar have all come together seamlessly in a wine with length and real personality; the flavours ripple through citrus, apple and minerally acidity.
