Summary
Lifted aromas of sweetly spiced poached pear and white peach meld with lemon meringue pie. Underlying wild ferment characters give notes of brioche dough and grilled cashews White peaches dominate on entry whilst flavours of preserved lemon, nectarine and crème brulee mesh together on a textured palate. The maritime influence of the site is evident via hints of ocean spray and citrus infused acidity, providing a finish that is long, balanced and focused.
