Tasting Note:
The wine in the glass has crystal-like clarity, with a straw colour and green hues. The aromas are rich and lifted, with pink grapefruit, lime citrus and a hint of spice; showing its Lodge Hill vineyard heritage. The palate is supportive of these aromas and is enhanced by a zingy natural acid backbone and flavours of mandarin, white peach and strawberry at the forefront. The wine has immense length and intensity of flavour, with a crisp, zesty finish.Bright straw yellow with green tints. On the nose nicely lifted floral and pineapple guava characters with a strong presence of petrichor (smell of rain hitting dry earth) complemented by notes of honeydew melon and brown lime. Strong presence on the palate with an intense acid backbone and flavours of fresh papaya, yellow peach, cumquat and feijoa.
