Sliced pineapple, white peach and Meyer lemon. Crème brulée toffee, apple friand, nutmeg and cinnamon. Elderflower and fennel seed. The palate shows both crunchy acidity and a honeysuckle sweetness, lemon curd and glace pineapple finish. Oak adds complexity without overpowering. A touch of grapefruit pith and peach tea bitterness. It’s a well worked wine that encompasses both ripe fruit, power and presence. Drink now and will cellar 3-6 years. Serve with a good ham and cheese toastie.
