Winemaker's Notes
Explodes on the nose with guava, lime, kiwi fruit and gooseberries. A rather concentrated vintage with tangy acidity, there is a good contrast of tropical fruit and a pebbly texture. Hints of green pepper and figs offer complexity to fruit pastels on a long, soft finish. An exotic wine that already shows its rainbow of bright colours.

Serving Tips
We recommend serving white wines at 10-12°C (50-54°F). This can be achieved by storing the wine in the fridge. Take it out and open it 10 min before serving it.
