Bright pale golden colour with viscous appearance in the glass. Floral and honey notes combine perfectly with the spicy cinnamon sugar and toasty oak aromas fusing in an inviting complex nose. The palate is filled with the mouth watering flavours of caramelised baked apples and dried apricots and pears. The typical zesty acidity of Chenin adds freshness and balance as it runs persistently through the length of the wine finishing with a classic minerality.
