Tasting
A lightly golden yellow in colour, the nose has an almost tropical character to it with melon, peach and even background hints of pineapple that makes it rich yet approachable.

The wine shows more restraint on the palate, with white peach still dominant but having a flinty edge that adds texture and contrast. The wine finishes with soft rounded stone fruits and just enough biscuit character. The wine is drinking well now, and over the next year or two.
