Pale straw with green reflections. Brush oxidative in style, with fairly intense stone fruit notes such as white peach, Golden Delicious apples, green orange, lemony and ripe Cape gooseberries with honey, flinty mineral and white lily floral note, no wood? Unless it is very cleverly done and less than 2%!

Dry, medium plus acidity, medium plus alcohol, fruit flavors follow through, with new flavors of green peas and spicy white pepper, honeyed mid palate, lifted, fresh, zesty, lots of minerality, concentrated, full style without losing its elegance, medium plus length and medium plus complexity

Blend of 100% grown Wellington Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, undisclosed blend percentage, tasted over 24 hours at various temperature.

Wellington ward (soon to be district!) is one of the 3 hottest places in the world to grow wine grape, so this is proper hot climate viticulture, yet this is a very smart blend where freshness have not been compromise, it is well balanced with lots of character and excellent purity of fruit, the alcohol a little high at 13.5 abv, nevertheless it’s a complete wine with lots of character.

Served at 12 degrees celsius
Now until 2018
