Before you even get to open the bottle you will be impressed with how beautiful the 'hourglass' the bottle is, including intricate glass detailing and a pretty label adorning the middle.

Once poured, (please open with time to breathe) you will notice the wine is a lovely light gold in colour with a nose of enticing ripe fruit and minerals. It’s a perfect blend of Chardonnay meets Pinot Grigio, where the flavours are left bouncing in your mouth after every sip.
