From a limestone-soiled hillside vineyard in Wairarapa \u2013 whole bunch pressed and aged in old oak. Varietally pure aromatics of crisp, ripe pear, satsuma peel, red apple, jasmine, lychee and cardamom. Dry, bright and tight into the palate – with a tense, youthful vibrancy. Alongside a chalky minerality sits some riper fruit and spice notes \u2013 developing as the wine airs: honeycomb, nutmeg, white peach and citrus. Acidity is fresh and lively, giving a flow to the palate and ending in a dry, pithy finish with good length. A well-crafted, modern expression. 92pts<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
