Lovely deep yellow, gold tinged colour. Slightly cloudy. Complex, intriguing buttery, dusty peach with a little burnt honey and salted nuts. A thread of lime adds freshness. It's amazing how the skin ferment highlights so many delicious Chenin flavours that really come to the fore on the palate. The refined tannic structure balances the intense fruit and richness. Long, complex, dry finish. Serve a little warmer than a white and cooler than a red. About 15°C. A little cooler in summer and a bit warmer in winter.
