The appearance has a brilliant hue of light straw with a speckled green tint. The wine has typical Sauvignon Blanc aromas of freshly cut grass, nettles, green figs and lemongrass, with a hint of sea air on the nose. Crisp and fresh with intense flavours of nettles, gooseberries, cut grass and greengage jelly. There is a crisp acidity and a full rich palate finishing with flinty, mineral and talcum notes. The wine has a long creamy finish and is drinking beautifully now, but will develop well until 2015.
