“Pale gold green with silver flecks. On the nose, Yarrow, Citrus peel, Charred Stone fruits, Lemon curd overlay a restrained flinty minerality. The palate shows fresh citrus and nectarine with a creamy texture that is pulled into shape by bright backbone of acidity. The generous summer fruits are also supported by an understated oak influence with its caramel comfort coupled with our typical cleansing mineral saline reprise.” Waipara West
Medium ruby heart with red hue. Aromas of ripe red cherries and plums, underneath are wild raspberries and freshly crushed currants. Classic forest undergrowth, clove, dark spice, and bramble notes surround the fruit while purple florals give everything a lift. An alive palate of fresh dark red fruits, fine grained tannin, well integrated oak. The structure is built around a gentle core of acidity which give freshness to the wine and is capped off with an oyster shell reprise that resonates.
