Hand-picked 5 Feb; fermentation initiated in stainless steel, then transferred to French barriques (30% new) and matured on lees until Aug. The brilliant straw-green colour introduces a wine that traces its lineage back to '71, the skill involved oozing from every pore and facet, not the least the tangy citrus/grapefruit farewell.

...Spicy, lime and cashew nut, white melon, subtle herbal notes. Medium bodied, nuts, spice, lime and melon, flinty, tight and fairly long, though it’s a little rugged on its spicy finish. Tasty. Fine boned style that needs a couple more years in bottle to show its best.
