This wine exhibits the fresh fruity nose that highlights the character of the Chenin Blanc grape. Varietal fruit continues onto the palate which shows great depth of flavour with a freshness that goes right through to the finish.
This Verdelho shows all the spicy, floral bouquet and distinctive rich flavour on the palate which is typical of the best examples of this unique variety. Full of flavour and life this wine is an ideal accompaniment for all seafood.
Partial barrel fermentation and extended lees contact have added complexity to the rich varietal flavour of this classic grape variety as it matured in custom made 450L French oak puncheons. This complexity will continue to develop for many years.
A very complex wine, with layered flavours from a combination of a cool vintage, basket pressing, barrel fermentation in 3rd-year oak, and a minimalistic approach to finishing the wine for bottling.
