Full of sea spray, lemon juice highlighter and sandy shores. This is transportive of summer days and the lightness of being. There is an effort made to capture salinity but with textural intention are the fore too. Some almond skin bitterness mid palate and pomelo pith. Invigorating and with the Mclaren Vale seaside lifestyle very present. Drink with fried school prawns and garlic aioli on newspaper.
