It is charming and instantly appealing on the nose showing white flesh nectarine, apple blossom, lemon zest and jasmine characters, followed by a pristine palate that is elegantly weighted and brightly expressed. The wine offers terrific fruit purity and vibrancy, wonderfully supported by delicate texture and juicy acidity, leading to a lingering mouth-watering finish.
