Sample
Grown at Moonambel in the Pyrenees region, the wine was fermented with wild yeast and aged in French oak.

Classical fume blanc aromas with a lees richness and slight funk to baked pineapple and passionfruit. There is a tingling line of acidity that sets this wine off from the start with a subtle savoury thread tying together piercing passionfruit and a little bit of almond meal to give contrast to the driving citrus acidity to finish.
