2024, though slightly warmer continued a run of cool vintages. French oak barriques (1/3 new) for fermentation (2 months through Autumn). Barrel aged on full lees until October 2024, before racking off and then a November bottling.
Pale lemon colour with green highlights. Class and nuance. White stone fruit, brioche, lemon/lime citrus, wet quartz stones, Pomme (apple to pear) flesh sprinkled with cinnamon spice, white choc dipped honeycomb, white florals, ozone and sea spray. Potency with precision. A distinct savoury undertone with grippy, drying phenolics and an undeniable intensity. It’s tense, tight and built for the ages.
