Very light green-yellow colour, the nose very restrained with pastry, bread dough and lemony Sunlight Soap aromas. The wine is very tight and crisp in the mouth, tense and reserved, youthful for its age and somewhat unready at present. Nervy and a little bit forbidding. Cellar!

Somewhat broad, by Hunter Valley standards, with the palate fleshing out with almost a sweetness, then stops short. There's certainly plenty of freshness in the midst with lemon, green apple and fresh herbs. Drink to 2028.
