WOW...of a white.

Shining pale golden colour. Fragrant aromas of tropical fruits like pineapple, melon, white peach and citrus blossom. The palate is far beyond the norm. Clean and fresh flavours of honeydew melon, pear, stone fruits, lemon curd and a characteristic pickled ginger in the end. Long and refreshing with bursting flavours through the finish. Perfect wine to pair with Asian food.

"An intriguing blend based on these Rhone varieties, which is brilliant value. The team put 4% of the juice through a wild fermentation in order to enhance the complexity. 14% of the Viognier was fermented in older French oak for textural reasons. The Marsanne underwent a similar process and was blended with the Viognier towards the end of the winemaking. The fruit was from McLaren Vale. The final blend was 60% Viognier and 40% Marsanne. Maturation was for eight months. A deep gold/straw hue, the nose is delightfully fragrant with hints of apricot skins, stone fruits, ginger and lemongrass. Beautifully perfumed. The gentle, almost elegant nose morphs into something much more powerful on the palate. There is good length here with some serious intensity. The textural aspect is an undoubted highlight. Delicious drinking, fabulous buying and a wine which will continue to provide pleasure for the next four years at a minimum." 93/100 Ken Gargett, WinePilot.com, May 2026 (2025 Vintage)
