Tasting Notes

‘Light yellow colour with a tinge of green. Lemon biscuit, vanilla pod spice and dusty yellow apples, aniseed and pineapple confit on the nose. On the palate, the wine has a lots of fruit with natural acid and a long lingering finish.’

Carsten Migliarina, Winemaker

Focused Chenin and lovely creamy texture and fine acidity. Fruit and acid in beautiful balance. Punchy but no hurry to drink! GV (Good Value). Drink 2022 – 2026. 16.5/20.
