So expressive in aromas of nectarine, white peach, citrus and grilled nuts. Reveals a quiet elegance which can be quite rare to find at this sub-$30 price point. Combines the kind of Yarra Valley strengths we like to see – texture, well-measured acidity and strong stone fruit and citrus scents and flavours against some non-intrusive, thoughtful oak. The palate opens up to embrace hints of lemongrass, quince paste, cashew and grapefruit pith that explore additional attractive flavours. Top taste for the price.
