Displaying all the elements of the remarkable pedigree of our ‘1927 Vines’ Marsanne releases, this 2016 vintage brings penetrating straw, ginger spice and citrus fruit aromas to a still evolving palate of nashi pear, grapefruit and honeysuckle notes.
An energetic mineral acidity graces a clean and steely finish and will provide the supportive framework for greater complexity to come with extended cellaring.

Don't Just Take Our Word For It ...

"Pale gold, still with a green highlight. A dance of freshness and development: Honeysuckle, beeswax, French Toast, jasmine, nashi pear, preserved lemon, lime juice and wet stones.
The palate still holding vibrancy and life while growing into richer later life: toast, wax and ‘parmesan’ rind. Acidity leaving a juicy feeling through the long citrussy finish, redolent of grapefruit bittersweetness."

"1927 Vines is fine example of the amazing versatility of the Marsanne grape. It is probably its purest expression, capturing its essential beauty early and then allowing bottle age to bring complexity.
From 2016 we see lovely florals emerging on the bouquet, showing signature honeysuckle, grilled grapefruit and almond development. Belies its age with a youthful energy and drive across the palate, lively acidity matched by a soft texture. By no means at its peak."
