A blend of sauvignon blanc and muscat. Full orange-gold. Lifted ripe apricot, vanilla cream. Candied peel and ginger flavours. Has freshness and line and just enough of everything except perhaps bottle age. Give it a bit more time to fill out and complex further, but is still very good refined drinking now. 375ml.
A lovely, complex bouquet to this: orange rind, dried white flowers, a tease of almond oil. Rich, intense cumquat and orange juice when sipped. It's beautifully balanced and quite delicious
Aromas of cold tea, bergamot and lychees, as well as orange marmalade. The palate has smoothly rendered fruit flesh and a long, seamless finish. A blend of sauvignon blanc and muscat. Drink now. Screw cap.

Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes: Made from Sauvignon Blanc and Muscat grapes. Grapefruit, musk and citrus nose. Rich, smooth apricot flavours. Sweet but with cleansing acidity.
Winemakers Note
The semi-arid climate that prevails in the Riverina softens towards the end of autumn with cool nights, and mornings made damp by fog and dew. These are perfect conditions for the development of botrytis fungus on the grapes, and the production of sweet white botrytis wines. The climate is one of the strengths of the Riverina region, helping to make it an ideal wine grape region in Australia, and the main factor in making it one of the best producers of botrytis wines in the world.
