Rockburn Fumé Blanc 2022, Central Otago

A striking bouquet of citrus and white smoke, mineral and fresh peach, there’s a floral and lees quality adding complexity and enticement. The barrel maturation part of this fume shows more on the palate as spice for me than any wood smokiness. That said this is a young wine and will likely show more fume qualities as it develops in bottle. Flavours of citrus and sweet hay, white peach and cape gooseberry also show on the palate. Excellent acid line and overall great texture. Best drinking from late 2024 through 2030+.
