Ready, but will improve

The ripe, fleshy, barrel fermented Viognier and Marsanne gives the palate a textural edge whilst the Roussanne contributes it’s more flinty and austere personality.

Inspired by the rich, luscious and mineral scented dry whites ofthe Rhône Valley, The Steading - Blanc is sourced entirely fromthe Descendant Vineyard on Roennfeldt Road first planted in1994 on the Torbreck estate.

Fragrant aromas of white flowers, summer stone fruits, kaffirlime, honey dew melon balanced with underlying hints ofbee’s wax and spices such as lemongrass, cumquat, orangepeel and ginger root. The palate shows wonderful freshnessacross a medium bodied weight balanced by a line of aciditythat enhances the freshness citrus and tropical fruit notes. Awine to enjoy in its youth, yet blossom into a fuller version ofitself showing secondary characteristics of brioche and limechutney.
