ABV: 13.%

Volume: 750ml

Serving Suggestion: 14 - 18 degrees. 

An explosive, complex, full-bodied white wine that brings a sluice of primary and secondary flavours with the wildest of aromas and textures. Combines fresh orchard fruit and white-flower lift with more savoury characters of quince, saffron and honeycomb. Velvety in texture, reflective of the ancient sands of Blewitt Springs, with a crunchy, juicy acidity. Lush, deep and a bit luxurious – and so easy to drink. - winemakers notes
