Chilled grapes were whole-bunch pressed, settled and wild-fermented in French oak (50% new), matured on lees for 12 months, 50% undergoing mlf. A smoky/toasty edge to the white peach of the bouquet gives scant warning of the drive of the palate. Here grapefruit juice and zest take hold with a grip in the 'stop, stop I love it' genre. Impressive wine.

An excellent vintage blessed by perfectly ripe grapes and lovely flavours. Always thankful when all is safely in the winery.

Another early but excellent vintage. Weather after veraison (berry colouring and softening) was mild which is vital for flavour development.
