Having partially gone through malo, the wine was 100% fermented in new French oak. The oak has done its thing nicely. Golden straw in appearance, creamy and buttery on the nose, these characters flow seamlessly on to a palate which throws up some grapefruit too.
Some delicious primary fruit and a length which goes on and on.
A most enjoyable wine and one which is easy to sip at. I'd happily buy it, that's for sure.
