This wine is at the peak of its powers with a wonderful balance struck between creamy almost mealy stone fruits and a powdery, lithe acid structure. The nose has a touch of blue cheese funk to white peach and flint that keeps evolving in the glass.

There is a brioche like richness that runs from start to finish and is contrasted by white peach, and a subtle flash of oak spice.The finish lingers with rich white peach, a pleasure to drink.
