Pale gold in colour. Initially, brioche and toasty oak are evident, with an alluring aroma of grilled stone fruit, melon fig and barbecued citrus. The tight, savoury texture on the palate will lengthen with careful ageing if you can wait. This wine is sumptuous in flavour, warm and toasty, with excellent structure and a fine acid backbone, finishing strongly with persistent hints of cashew and toast. Will cellar superbly for 8-10 years.
