Aromas of fresh apricots, lifted ginger and fresh white flowers, delight the senses. The palate is long and rich with vibrant stone fruit flavours finishing with a zesty citrus freshness. This wine will continue to develop and will reward the patient, firstly showing enhanced apricots and spice, then after a couple of years developing honey flavours and toast complexity.
