Tasting
As a variety this is fast becoming one of the emerging stars of the Adelaide hills and a much lauded variety across other Australian regions.

A flinty nose with pear and citrus at the fore, the palate manages to be firm yet feminine with a texture profile that is anything but linear, rising and falling in unison across the journey. A compelling wine that has the delicate aromas from an aromatic white, but the textural complexity of a fuller bodied variety. You can see why the variety is getting so much attention.
