TASTING NOTE: Instantly appealing, the lifted bouquet shows nectarine, feijoa, lime zest and sweet basil characters. The palate is intensely flavoured and vibrant, offering tasty fruit notes together with bright acidity, leading to a lengthy juicy finish. A real crowd-pleaser. At its best: now to 2019.
