Margaret River
TASTING NOTE
Vintage
Light straw in colour with hints of green, this wine displays a basket of orchard fruits on the nose, showing notes of crunchy Gala apple and sweetly spiced red pear. Zesty pink grapefruit, white peach and citrus blossom notes follow, giving a mouthwatering and enticing freshness to the bouquet. Tart lemon wedge, cumquat and Nashi pear linger on the palate, giving way to flavours of lime zest and green apple. Subtle use of oak and a modern style of winemaking encourages racy acidity and a chalky, fresh minerality that gives urgency to the second sip.
Food Match
Enjoy with poached chicken, pickled vegetables and rice noodles, topped with crispy XO prawns.
Recommended Cellaring
Drink now or in the next 2 to 3 years.
