Winemaker's Comments
Bright, floral perfumed aromas intertwine with lemon and lime, accentuated by attractive apricot nuances. The palate is light and crisp showing juicy grapefruit and mandarin flavours with a hint of ginger spice. Shows excellent fruit sweetness, subtle mineral notes, well balanced acidity and a smooth oily textural finish.
