It’s rich in steaming baking aromas. Flavours are even richer and denser, bold and bitter-sweet. It’s a forward, full-bodied style of white wine. Bitter oregano oil, orange peel, honey, ginger… Very seductive Roussanne.
Critic tasting note: (2021 vintage) "Golden yellow in appearance. The nose is aromatic and lush, with aromas of apple tart, poached pears and lemon confit. The palate is medium-bodied with finely integrated acidity, giving notes of orange blossoms, honeysuckle, tea leaves and apricots. Textural and generous with a underlying tension. Very good. Drink or hold." - James Suckling
“Baked apples, buttery shortbread. Lemon tart. Nuts. It’s rich in steaming baking aromas. Flavours are even richer and denser, bold and bitter-sweet. It’s a forward, full-bodied style of white wine. Bitter oregano oil, orange peel, honey, ginger. Heavy load of flavours. Cinnamon with alcoholic warmth finish the taste and boost the spicy feeling. But it’s alright as fruit intensity can handle it. There’s a decent spike in acidity at the end that pushes through the low-sitting, coating layer of flavours. Very seductive Roussanne.” ~ Mike Bennie in Wine Front
