Perfect, pale green colour and lifted grapefruit aromas. The French oak sits nicely with the fine, juicy citrus flavours on the palate, accompanied by subtle bran meal. The driving force of this wine is the acidity – long and pure. More than two-thirds from Beechworth, the balance being from the Yarra and Hunter Valley. The final components of this wine basically selected themselves. Another top-notch vintage!
