Custodianship remains with Grosset Wines from grape growing to in-house bottling; authenticity is assured. Delightful floral aromas with hints of lime juice and beeswax - though it's white flowers that dominate. It's almost joyful or playful.

It has depth of flavour and intensity in its infancy with the suggestion that these will become hallmarks of the aged wine.
