This barrel influenced blend of 62% Sauvignon Blanc and 38% Semillon delivers intense, elegant aromatics lime, white flowers, lemon peel, bees wax, oatmeal, and spice notes with touches of melon. It's medium+ bodied on the crunchy palate with very nice, dry, wood influenced flavours of grapefruit, citrus, and tropical fruits with some mineral notes. Acids are very good, while the finish is long and nicely balanced. Tasted Nov/2019.

I was picking up aromas of honey, stone's, grass, along with tropical fruit.
If you can imagine the taste of pineapple with a slight acidity of lemon, that is the best way that I can describe the taste of this wine. Also nicely balanced.
