James Suckling, 90 Points 

"An inviting nose of peaches, sliced pears and dried orange peel. Medium-bodied with delightful texture. Bright and rounded with an expressive core of stone fruit." 

Winemaker Notes:

"The 2022 spent time on its lees in concrete tanks and old casks - this is an important part of the maturation and gives incredible texture and palate weight to the wine.  Chenin blanc has a lot of structure on its own, but we added just a tiny bit of Semillon and Grenache blanc to round it off.  The aromas are flinty with honey, orange blossom and white stone fruit notes.  The 2022 vintage was influenced by some heat towards the beginning of the harvest which led to earlier picking than usual." 

Alcohol: 13%
