Region: Margaret River, Western Australia.
Vintage: Current Vintage (enquires welcome)
Colour: Water white.
Aroma: Aromas of freshly ripped basil, crushed lychee and preserved lemon. Wow!
Palate: On the first sip tropical fruits - passionfruit, mango, gooseberry. A zingy kaffir lime acidity finishes and cleanses the palate. Harmoniously integrated.
Winemaker's Notes
Vintage Conditions: It was an early start to the vintage. Winter rains were about average. An unusually dry hot
December and January followed; with only a few intermittent showers in late January. This led to a promising start to the vintage. Whites were off early, picked in the cool crisp dawns resulting in some wonderful fresh and vibrant wines.
