Sourced from vines with an average age of 30 years old planted on a combination of Kimmeridgian limestone clay and Portlandian limestone. Fermented in stainless steel tanks and then matured on fine lees for 6 months.
Bright pale straw colour with a watery hue. Aromas of lime and green apple infused with fresh herbs mix with some grassy characters and stony mineral notes. Quite ripe, full and texturally rounded in the mouth, concentrated lime and green apple flavours overlay subtle herbaceous asparagus elements, fresh herbs and delicate flinty mineral characters. Finishes dry with lively acidity and a lengthy, nicely proportioned yet crisp aftertaste.
Drink over the next 2-3 years.
