• Peak Drinking / Cellaring Potential

  Stunning drinking now, but will cellar beautifully under the crown seal.

  Absolutely an aperitif. Stunning with oysters. Lovely with any nibbles, but oily food with strong flavours (such as smoked salmon) can really interfere with its beautiful bead and its aromatic subtleties.
