A blend of 93/7% chardonnay/pinot noir. Pale straw in the glass with a fine and persistent bead and mousse. Aromas of apple, white peach and citrus fruits over hints of oyster shell, grilled nuts, white flowers, crushed minerals, clover blossom, almond meal, enoki mushrooms, light pastry tones and proving sourdough. Tautly framed with a dry, extended finish that shows a brisk mineral cadence and a layered complexity to its flavours, drawing out nicely on the finish with focus and verve. Points: 96/100
