Pale straw hue with a slight green tint. White asparagus, green pepper and elegant floral notes on the nose with a hint of passion fruit. Flint and minerality ads poise and character. The medium bodied palate follows through with more green pepper and grapefruit that is balanced out with a restrained acidity.

A wet and cold winter after the drought of 2018 helped the vines in building up sufficient reserves for the 2020 growth season. Even budding and a cool growth season from September till January 2020 laid the foundation for good natural acidity and optimal phenolic ripeness in the grapes. The rain aided the vines basic water needs and we had to irrigate less thanks to Mother Nature’s bounty. A few heat waves in February accelerated ripening. With the hot days and cool nights, flavours and colour levels increased and led to the production of concentrated wines with a lively acidity.
