Description

"A gorgeous expression; the immensely complex bouquet shows golden peach, fig, cedar and vanilla characters with a touch of brioche. The palate is concentrated and expansive, displaying excellent depth and richness, while remaining refined and harmonious. At its best: now to 2023" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jul 2019

Bright, pale straw colour in the glass. Flinty notes with peach undertone perfume the bouquet, while the palate dislays ripe peach with spicy biscuit notes rounded by integrated oak and lemon blossom. Enjoy now and over the next 5 years.

Sourced exclusively from the Reed Vineyard from 100% handpicked fruit for controlled whole-bunch pressing.

Fermented for a full 10 months in a selection of new and seasoned French oak barriques from wild yeast.
