Tasting Notes:
Radiant, pale straw colour with subtle hints of green. The nose is dominated by intense tropical fruits – ripe pineapple, guava, mango, and pawpaw. As the wine evolves, more complex layers emerge, revealing nuances of white peach, honeysuckle, and sweet melon that speaks to its terroir. Its lively acidity invigorates the palate, harmonizing beautifully with the wine’s lush fruit profile. The tropical fruit flavours encountered on the nose persist, with pineapple and mango taking center stage, complemented by crisp green apple and pear. Mid-palate, the wine expands, offering a fleshy texture that is both mouth-filling and creamy. The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering notes of citrus and stone fruits.

Food pairing:
A versatile wine that pairs beautifully with seafood, such as grilled prawns, scallops, or a delicate ceviche. The wine’s creamy texture complements richer dishes, like roasted chicken, pork tenderloin, or a creamy mushroom risotto. For a vegetarian option, pair it with a fresh garden salad, goat cheese tart, or a vegetable stir-fry. Its versatility extends to cheese pairings like brie or camembert, as well as tangy goat cheese.
