Winemaker Pam Dunsford maintains that this wine could be kept for 5-10 years, by which time it will develop some nutty characteristics, however, keeping this wine any longer than summer is going to be very hard work indeed. This is a delightful fresh, aromatic Verdelho. Bright pale straw colour. Intense fresh aromatic nose, filled with the aroma of tropical fruit and just a hint of honeysuckle. Full bodied, melon, citrus and tropical fruit palate. Mouthfilling, followed by clean crisp acid finish and very long fresh tropical fruit, citrus aftertaste.
