   Rich, gutsy and quite complex blended white that’s gently aromatic with melon, passionfruit, lime and struck flint and fireworks reductive character. A combination of firm acidity and fine tannins give the wine backbone and a drying finish.

   If a wine were a pop song, this would be “Uptown Funk” ... That’s because this cuvée is always a bit kooky. Here, it presents a combination of struck match (which the winery attributes to skin contact) with ripe passion fruit, apricot and rose petals on the nose. Both partners in the blend (70% Sauvignon / 30% Sémillon) bring zest and refreshment, and the Sémillon adds a touch of midpalate weight to the light-bodied style. The 2018 follows its predecessors in being as quirky as Bruno Mars’ wardrobe choices, but then who needs another mainstream Sauvignon?

   Flint, dried-apple and stone aromas follow through to a full body with depth and intensity. Very dry and layered. Even chewy. Dried mango at the end. Flavourful finish. Solid.
