Score: DCT92
Sourced from the estate’s Roebuck and Roman Villa vineyards near Petworth, the 2016 vintage saw a long Indian summer, which is evident on the nose – orange blossom, creamy lemon, bruised apple and a hint of candied cherry. The base wine went through partial fermentation in Burgundian oak before 36 months of ageing on lees, giving it a bready and spiced palate. Bright lemon curd acidity leads the way; brioche, white pepper, red apple peel and grapefruit zest, with umami notes on the clean finish.
