Bright straw green colour with a watery hue. Aromas of citrus and herbaceous grassy characters meld into some asparagus and lightly spiced dried herb characters. Dry and very herbaceous the palate is filled with grassy characters and dried herbs over some citrusy asparagus with a subtle spicy nuttiness emerging on the back palate. Very dry finish with an aftertaste of herbaceous grassy characters, asparagus, spicy dried herbs and traces of nut.

Other Reviews…
95% semillon, 5% sauvignon blanc, 65% wild-fermented on skins, pressed to oak and stainless steel for maturation, the remainder whole bunch-pressed, fermented on solids in stainless steel, then to a new French hogshead, bottled Jun, 192 dozen made. A lot of work, this is an excitement machine, vibrantly edgy with lemon juice and pith, minerally acidity, and layers of funky flavours. Drink by 2018.
