Light to straw yellow in colour, the nose has ripe nectarine and a touch of fig that is given a subtle lift by sweeter vanillin oak.

The palate is well rounded and shows mouth filling melon to start before moving towards more savoury fig , with oak derived spice adding to the wines complexity.

The back palate has a citrus acidity that fades towards melon that lingers in the mouth, the wine is in it's youth and will continue to develop richer secondary characters over the next 3 to 4 years.
