The 2000 vintage was small and early. Another drought winter, frost at the end of October, poor flower development in spring and the unseasonal cool temperatures in late October/early November led to low yields. This was compounded by searing summer temperatures and a large amount of rain at the end of February - 100mm of rain over 24 hours courtesy of a tropical cyclone up north - which caused splitting of fruit, mould infections and subsequent shrivel and raisining. Overall, the whites are delicate with good flavour intensity while the reds are showing great potential.

Sweet grapevine blossom and lime juice aromas with delicate hints of passionfruit and white roses.

Intense citrus flavours, excellent palate weight and structure finishing luscious, long and crisp.

Pale green/gold in colour.
