Instantly appealing, the 2020 vintage (4.5*) was estate-grown, hand-picked and partly (30 per cent) fermented in old oak barrels. Bright, light lemon/green, it is full-bodied, with fresh stonefruit, pear and spice flavours, showing very good vibrancy and concentration, balanced acidity and an off-dry (6 grams/litre of residual sugar) finish.
