Huon Hooke
Light yellow colour; lemon and beeswax aroma with a touch of paraffin. Lovely citrus and waxy and raw cashew-nutty flavours, palate intense and refined, direct and piercing. Very dry, almost a hint of austerity. Line and length aplenty. Special delicacy in this vintage.

Light, bright and crisp; fine lime and apple flavours, good length; a deliciously airy finish. Drink to 2013.
