Retailer product description

Reproduced from a tracked retailer’s product feed for identification; it is not BottlePicker editorial content.

Calgardup is situated just inland, benefiting from cooling breezes off the Indian Ocean. The soils here are predominantly schist and sand, the site has a gentle north-facing slope with the vines planted east-west to promoted even ripening as this is McHenry Hohnen's coolest vineyard. The nose opens with a pleasingly peachy fragrance, attractive soft talc, citrus oils, a little sea-spray, and an impression of cream but also rock pools. There is a sugar/honey richness that puts one in mind of Puligny or Chassagne-Montrachet, the oak and lees work combine to throw up notes of pie crust, and texturally this is silky and broad, soft yet palpably mineral and grippy. Lovely freshness, very moreish, and just a great flow to it.
