Just cut fresh pineapple, white peaches and pomelo, bitter almond and an almost aloe vera freshness. This wine showcases the purity of Margaret River fruit and without the interference of unnecessary work in the winery. I can see the inspiration. The clever use of French oak adds some outline and structure. A quiet wine but no less delicious. Would happily drink this throughout the week and on the weekend. Great to see these styles still shining bright. Delightful.
