Pale lemon in colour with a restrained and savoury nose with notes of ripe cumquat, white nectarine, green mango and toasted salted cashew nuts.
On the palate the wine is still quite closed, with a minerally line running through it, and firm acidity.
The fruit is more restrained, with salted focaccia and cheesy notes on the mid palate and these flavours, along with a savoury soy sauce note and a firm phenolic grip linger long on the tongue after the wine is gone.
Will blossom with some more time in the cellar (5-10 years) but drink now with pan fried free range crumbed chicken breast and celeriac remoulade.
