An impressive nose with well-judged cedar spice, crushed sea shells, salty notes and banana skin. The palate is layered and with ripe stone fruits. Excellent intensity of fruit and a toasty oak note comes through on the finish that should integrate very well with time. Concentrated and deep Golden Russet apple notes, cinnamon and spice. A streak of fresh mineral acidity with crushed oyster shell comes through on the finish to freshen the wine - superb.
COMPOSITION: 100% Chardonnay
