The lead up to the 2023 vintage was good, we managed to harvest for the Honeybunch before the rains arrived. Yields were good and the cooler weather allowed for a good percentage of botrytis to grow, around 5% of bunches.
Nose: Yellow fruit notes of peach, quince and pineapple. Floral notes of orange blossom and jasmine with the characteristic honeycomb aroma so unique to this vineyard.
Palate: Bright acidity coated with ripe/ yellowed fruit, the portion of botrytis gives its signature honeycomb/waxy coating. 12 hour skin contact gives the wine a slight grip and leaves it with a sweet and savoury finish balanced by the fresh acidity.
