Taste Description
Taste Description
Nose
Lifted Floral and musk notes on the nose complimented with strawberry fruit characteristics.
Flavours and Palate
The palate is very even and generous with white peach and subtle lemon flavours, encased in a structural palate that should see this wine age gracefully for 10 - 15 years.

The Apple Isle is aptly nicknamed for its fresh and pure produce – its seafood and sparkling are national treasures. Some of the best intensely flavoured and aromatic Chardonnay, Riesling and Pinot Noir around also thrive in Tassie’s pristine, cool climate.
