This Arlewood house style is very essence of Margaret River. Aromatic and lifted on the nose, with concentrated citrus, minerality and tang on the palate. Long and fine, with a pristine and slightly slippery texture from partial barrel fermentation. A wine that drinks well on its own, but really shines with food.
