The Ashbourne Sandstone ensnares the nose with a wonderfully pure bouquet of fragrant quince and fine orange peel and subtle hints of nectarine. Balanced on the palate with a lively natural acidity and nuances of tart fresh orange peel and lemon zest on the lingering finish. A mineral drop with a subtle saline note and a delicate viscosity.

The Sauvignon Blanc grapes (51%) were fermented in a combination of clay amphorae, Nomblot concrete and ceramic eggs, while the Semillon (25%) was aged in neutral oak barrels and the Chardonnay (24%) in terracotta amphorae and neutral oak barrels. Subsequently, all separately aged components were blended and bottled.
