Three batches of fruit were all vinified separately, different yeasts were also engaged, only 20% allowed to go through Malo. Oak, is French barriques, 20% of which is new.
Opens with a mix of florals, stonefruit, citrus and even a touch of fenugreek. The palate is full, creamy - unsure of the battonage regime - with good acid to cut through the back end. Shows nice balance, good drinking, has a moreish quality to it. Reels you back in.
That said, length is a little average, flavour is pulled through, medium acidity. Good wine. 90 - Good
