  Very elegant wine. Has cut and clarity with medium richness and nice creamy mouth feel. Drinking well now but I'd be interested to see how this develops.

  Clear golden-straw colour, dominant nose of nuts and flowers, with further scents of earthiness and yeast with nuances of minerality & grass (Marlborough freshness). Delicate & smooth on entry, rich on the palate with a perfect well-rounded body. A complex transition, perfect in balanced with a fine blend of acidity & creamy mouthfeel. Nice elegant lingering finish with slight taste of grapefruit. A beautifully structured wine, full of champagne characters due to lees stirring. A heady mix of elegance & power in a delicious package.
