Blend of 72% Semillon and 28% Sauvignon Blanc that was fermented in French oak puncheons & barriques, the medium-high intensity nose offers a complex aromas of leesy, lemon/lime citrus, white floral, white peach, and herbal notes. It's dry, medium+ weighted with lovely aroma replays and subtle oak flavours. Acids are well-balanced, while the mouthfeel has a subtle chalky texture. Long, crisp finish. Tasted Apr. 2022.
