Bright peachy colour. There's a really apricotty sort of aroma, with a touch of wildness, and a nice barrel accent. Tart, with again a stone fruit character, a bit of barrel tannins. Nice complexity, good flavour, and some nice tartness and tannins in the finish.

650mL bottle, pours a cloudy bright orangey golden with a small white head. Aroma is loaded with pungent, fresh stone fruits, followed by lots of oak, gentle acid, chardonnay, and light vanilla beans. Flavour is super fruity, with intense stone fruit pith, plenty of acetone, and some vanilla. Light chardonnay character, with a fruity, oaky finish. Complex and refined. Excellent.
