The colour is pale yellow -straw. Citrus notes dominate the bouquet and integrate well with hints of tropical fruit and cedar and background nutty notes. On the palate riper fruit flavours feature. A rich mid palate is balanced by firm acidity that adds freshness, stability and length to the palate. Toasty cedar notes and a hint of biscuit linger with the support of a firm but balanced acidity.
