Tasting Notes

Predominantly lemon and grapefruit characters feature on the nose as blossoms, and race around the palate as zesty fruit. The acid is tight and refreshing, the palate long and invigorating with a drawstring of minerality to bring it all together. Do not fight against the temptation to have another glass, nor the strong feeling that you should put a few down to observe over the next 5 or 10 years.

Vintage

The Hunter 2018 vintage was outstanding, with average rainfalls and temperatures. Two hot days in January 10 days before harvest had no effect.
