Fermentation takes place in barrel of which 50% are new with further ageing in oak for 18 months.

Tempting dried fruit here with spice and floral character. Full and creamy with attractive acidity and a textural finish.

Flowers, pineapples, mango, apricot and candied lemon notes get the wine going. The palate, with its layers of sweet, ripe and overripe, honeyed yellow, and orange fruits is fresh, long, intense, balanced, and most importantly, delicious! And isn't that the purpose of a wine? Drink from 2025-2055.

95% Sémillon, 4% Sauvignon Blanc, 1% Muscadelle. RS 158 g/l. Cask sample.
Subtle and citrusy on the nose with a bitter-orange edge. Rich and full on the palate the botrytis evident on the finish, a bitter note providing persistence. Reserved but should develop further.
