Lovely, medium-high intensity nose is ripe with citrus, lemon, pear, apple, peach, and stone fruit aromas with touches of herbs and honey. On the crunchy, nicely textured, and medium-full bodied palate it has clean, fresh acidity that lift the aroma replays in an off-dry flavour profile. Citrus and herbs with hints of petrol linger on the long, crisp finish. Tasted May 2023.
