Straw yellow with flecks of silver and chartreuse colours reflecting in the light. Initial aromas of lime blossom, toasted hazelnut, white nectarines, pink grapefruit, bee’s wax and sandalwood. Prodigious from the word go. Initial taste reveals a sophisticated, elegant, textural wine with incredible power and length. Classic old world structure frames the wine carrying the flavors to a long and satisfying finish. Even as a young wine its potential is so obvious. This wine will age beautifully for 20 years. If consuming under 5 years please decant for at least an hour for maximum enjoyment. Will continue to improve over the next 8 – 15 years. - Keppell Smith, Winemaker.
