Food Pairing

An excellent aperitif. Its fresh, crisp profile makes this wine an ideal match for salads, seafood and lighter meat dishes.

Tasting Notes

Clear, bright and pale gold colour. Typical yellow fruit aromas of citrus, stone fruit, subtle sea salt and French oak too. Layered fruity flavours on the palate such as more citrus, green melon with a silky texture from extended lees-contact and battonage. Finishes fresh and salivating dry. Drink now or leave to rest for 2 to 3 years.
