Maturing very gracefully, the 2014 vintage (4.5*), tasted in December 2017, was grown at Waipara, in North Canterbury, and fermented and lees-aged for 10 months in French oak casks. Light lemon/green, it is a distinctive wine, full-bodied and tightly structured, with vibrant, ripe tropical-fruit flavours, showing good complexity, a minerally streak, and a long, dry finish.
