Review
A perfect blend of citrus and savoury tones, with notes of star fruit and lemon accented by faint hints of almond, oatmeal and river stones. Satisfying breadth and concentration define the mid-palate, while chiselled acidity provides structure and tension. The palate is beautifully restrained and detailed, with attractive layers that slowly unfold in the glass.
