Tasting notes
Honeyed quince, ripe apricot and acacia blossom on the nose, with a wet-stone edge. The palate is lusciously sweet yet taut, with candied citrus peel and baked apple. Vivid Chenin acidity keeps the long finish clean and mineral.

Key characteristics
About this wine
Intensely aromatic with layers of ripe apricot, quince, and pineapple, wrapped in acacia honey, candied citrus peel, and a hint of saffron. Underlying floral notes like dried chamomile and honeysuckle add complexity. Lusciously sweet yet beautifully balanced by vibrant acidity. Flavors of tropical fruit compote, orange blossom, and baked apple tart unfold across a velvety texture. The wine finishes long and persistent with delicate minerality and a refreshing lift.
