Winery Tasting Notes

Notes Image

Pale straw, green hue. Citrus and herb notes are at the forefront of the nose on this wine. Beautiful inty

minerality creates layers of interest. On the palate the wine is rich and vibrant. Tropical notes balance out with lime and grapefruit, all carried by generous acidity and typical Gladstone salinity. Lovely length on the nish.
